Energy Savings with Permanent LED Lighting

August 2024ยท5 min readยทTrimlight East Idaho

One of the most surprising things homeowners discover after installing Trimlight is how little it costs to run. LED technology has come a long way โ€” and Trimlight's system is engineered for maximum efficiency. Here's a breakdown of the real numbers.

Trimlight vs. Traditional Lights

TypeWatts per Bulb100 Bulbs / Night
Incandescent~5W~500W / night
Traditional LED~0.08W~8W / night
Trimlight Classic0.6W60W / night
Trimlight 3L0.9W90W / night

The 12V Low-Voltage System

Trimlight runs on a safe, low-voltage 12V system โ€” similar to landscape lighting. This isn't just safer than line-voltage systems; it's also more efficient. The lower voltage helps components last longer and dissipate heat more effectively, contributing to that 50,000+ hour lifespan.

Up to 75% More Efficient

Compared to traditional incandescent holiday lights, Trimlight is up to 75% more energy-efficient. For a home running lights 8 hours per night during the holiday season, that's a meaningful difference on your Idaho Power bill.

And since Trimlight is used year-round โ€” not just for 6 weeks at Christmas โ€” the cumulative energy savings over 20+ years are significant.

Save Energy. Look Amazing.
