Frequently Asked Questions

Are all LED?s created the same?LED?s are not all created equally. In general, more LED?s create more light. However, it is certainly possible that a single well-constucted LED can outshine a group of poor quality LED's. LED's vary considerably in terms of brightness, color and lifespan. Since there is no real industry standard to test LED's, Carson generally tests them ourselves. We compare LED's from many manufacturing facilities before constructing our Reading Lights. We test for brightness, durability and lifespan. We then select the lights that will create the best value for our customers.
What features should I look for in a Reading Light?There are several features to consider when purchasing an LED Reading Light. Some of the factors are clearly visible in the package, and others are not. Below you will find details on most of the important considerations when making your Reading Light purchase. For more information on Carson LED Reading Lights please visit the Reading Light section.
Which should I buy, an LED or incandescent Reading Light?LED Reading Lights generally cost a little more than incandescent Reading Lights but LED Reading Lights are well worth the investment. LED Reading Lights last long, on average about fifty times longer than the bulb of an incandescent Reading Light. LED lights are resistant to shock, where incandescent Reading Lights can break easily. The most important consideration is energy use, LED Reading Lights use very litte battery power and operate at a low temparture. Incandescent Reading Lights consume a great deal of battery power, and thus are much more expensive to operate than LED Reading Lights.
