Kodi kuyatsa kwa LED kumasiyana bwanji ndi magetsi ena, monga incandescent ndi Compact Fluorescent (CFL)?

Kuwala kwa LED kumasiyana ndi incandescent ndi fulorosenti m'njira zingapo. Mukapangidwa bwino, kuyatsa kwa LED kumakhala kogwira mtima, kosunthika, komanso kumatenga nthawi yayitali.
Ma LED ndi magwero a "directional" kuwala, zomwe zikutanthauza kuti amatulutsa kuwala kumalo enaake, mosiyana ndi incandescent ndi CFL, zomwe zimatulutsa kuwala ndi kutentha kumbali zonse. Izi zikutanthauza kuti ma LED amatha kugwiritsa ntchito kuwala ndi mphamvu moyenera pamapulogalamu ambiri. Komabe, zikutanthawuzanso kuti uinjiniya waukadaulo umafunika kupanga babu yamagetsi ya LED yomwe imawunikira mbali zonse.
Mitundu yodziwika bwino ya LED imaphatikizapo amber, ofiira, obiriwira, ndi abuluu. Kuti apange kuwala koyera, ma LED amitundu yosiyanasiyana amaphatikizidwa kapena kuphimbidwa ndi zinthu za phosphor zomwe zimatembenuza mtundu wa kuwala kwa kuwala kodziwika bwino "koyera" komwe kumagwiritsidwa ntchito m'nyumba. Phosphor ndi chinthu chachikasu chomwe chimakwirira ma LED ena. Ma LED amitundu amagwiritsidwa ntchito kwambiri ngati magetsi owunikira ndi zowunikira, monga batani lamagetsi pakompyuta.
Mu CFL, mphamvu yamagetsi imayenda pakati pa maelekitirodi kumapeto kulikonse kwa chubu chokhala ndi mpweya. Izi zimatulutsa kuwala ndi kutentha kwa ultraviolet (UV). Kuwala kwa UV kumasinthidwa kukhala kuwala kowoneka bwino kukakhudza zokutira za phosphor mkati mwa babu.
Mababu a incandescent amapanga kuwala pogwiritsa ntchito magetsi kutenthetsa chingwe chachitsulo mpaka "choyera" chitenthe kapena kunenedwa kuti chikuyaka. Zotsatira zake, mababu a incandescent amatulutsa 90% ya mphamvu zawo ngati kutentha.
