FAQ’S General

General
Is a licensed electrician needed to install Wild Ideas Light Company LED lights in commerical applications?

We recommend using a licensed electrician because of the high voltage present in commercial applications.

As a homeowner do I need to be an electrician to install LED lights from Wild Ideas Light Company?

No, the typical homeowner can install the lights themselves.  Most lights are screw-in or use plug-and-play connectors similar to those used in stero systems.  Connecting the power supply to a 110-volt AC power source requires three (3) wire nuts.

If your LED bulbs last 100,000 hours why do you rate them at 75,000 hours?

We believe in giving extra value.  If you are expecting 75,000 hours of life and you get 100,000 hours you get a bonus and are pleased at the extra value.  We are always pleased when we get more than we expected or something lasts longer than expected.  We save extra money.

Do LED lights burn brighter just before they burn out like metal halide bulbs do?

All bulbs lose some of their brightness over time.  The industry standard is no more than a 25% loss over time.  LED bulbs exceed the industry standard by producing essentially the same amount of light over their expected life (100,000 hours).
