Experimental study of the LED lamp

LEDs are widely used light sources. Their main advantages are low power consumption, mechanical strength, high luminous efficacy, and a lifetime exceeding 50 000 hours. However, compared to other light sources, they are more sensitive to high temperatures. Heat is generated by converting electrical energy into radiant energy. The share of heat in this transformation describes the efficiency, but in the case of light sources, efficiency is not one of the basic parameters because only a part of the radiation produced is visible light, which interests the recipients. However, the temperature has a big influence on the properties and lifetime of LEDs. This article presents the results of temperature measurements of the LED lamp
