Known to be extremely durable and longer-lasting than incandescent bulbs, Chip-on-Board (COB) LED feature lighting durations of tens of thousands of hours, while using significantly less energy with the same power. Needless to say, it will be several years (or over a decade) before your AEON luminaires burn out and require repairs or replacements.

Cutting Back on Waste
A key aspect of sustainability is reducing waste —which is exactly what happens when you use AEON luminaires. Conventional light bulbs are typically thrown away without a second thought, but AEON luminaires feature components that can be upcycled, repaired, or disposed of properly. Moreover, AEON LED last longer than conventional bulbs, meaning less need for replacements, resulting in less waste ending up in landfills. With no need for constant bulb changes or repairs, AEON luminaires also result in fewer carbon emissions from production and delivery processes, an aspect often overlooked by customers.
Despite its minute size, the Halo Mini Adjust features impressive lighting functions and capabilities; an efficient luminaire for any room or space.

With AEON luminaires, you get to enjoy the above mentioned benefits, while also saving on extra costs in the long run-- thanks to AEON's COB LED energy efficiency solution, and no need for frequent maintenance. When you purchase AEON luminaires, you’re really buying more for less.
