CONCLUSION

The research study will produce a new lighting system using LEDs to replace traditional lighting system. It is clear that using LEDs to replace the traditional lighting devices are possible. Protection circuits such as current, voltage and temperature are needed to increase the reliability. These actions will help to overcome the LEDs disadvantages.

With the LED lamp prototype, it will help to introduce people with the capability of LEDs to replace the conventional lighting system. Other than its environmental friendly features, it is also designable according to the position and situation.

            With this research study, it is hoped that the use of fluorescent lamps will be reduced in the near future. This study will also be beneficial to the electronic industry as more research will be made to fully utilize the use of LEDs.
