LED Piano Lamps 101

LED piano lamps add a classic spice to a time honored tradition. For many many years, a light right by the piano was absolutely needed for the player to read the music and see the keys. In the early days, candles provided essential light for musicians. When electricity was created, piano lamps used it so light could be focused more on the music. Today, LED lamps light up your music in a green way.

LED is short for light-emitting diode. These lights are efficient and because the light bulbs are very small, low profile and slim designs are possible. They are also cost efficient and convenient for performers because the bulb lasts much longer than a regular light bulb.

LED piano lamps are high efficiency. These power-packed little lamps can offer more than 100 lumens from a one-watt device. They don't weigh a lot and, as a result, they are very portable and they also shed a good amount of light despite their small size. Without carrying around a cumbersome lamp, musicians get the illumination they need with a lamp that is easy to transport.

With traditional lamps, a performer is never sure when the bulb will give out. Besides transporting the lamp, a musician needs to bring extra light bulbs to ensure the show will go on. Believe it or not, the bulbs of LED lamps can last up to 30,000 hours.

Other long-lasting piano lamps for pianos don't offer the pure simplicity of LED piano lamps. Unlike most HID technologies and fluorescent lighting, LED's are mercury-free. Performers enjoy green, long-lasting light without the fear of hazardous halogen gases or mercury.

Another benefit of LED lamps is you can dim them with pulse-width modulation. Players produce the lighting they want and need during a performance. Similar to most quality piano lamps, LED lamps are usually a focal point of a player performance.
