About this tool

Can I just swap LED lamps into my halogen fixtures?

Often yes, if the fixtures are brass and the sockets are sound. We check the transformer taps and voltage at each fixture, because LED loads change the math on long wire runs.

How long do LED landscape lamps last?

Quality LED lamps and integrated fixtures are rated for 40,000 to 50,000 hours, roughly 15 to 20 years at six hours a night, compared with about 2,000 hours for halogen.

Will LED light look cold?

Not the ones we install. 2700K warm-white LEDs match the color of halogen with better consistency between fixtures.
