As happens with any technology, many new and fun uses have emerged for LED light bulbs that were probably never considered when they were first invented.  Model train enthusiasts have begun using LED light bulbs as the headlamps in the trains, for street lamps, and for general accent lighting to highlight areas of their track.  With LED lights being so small (about the size of a pencil eraser) and long lasting, they actually seem tailor made for this kind of work!

LED lights are also commonly used in home theatre systems, and not just in the jumbo television screens.  Many plasma televisions that are hung from the wall are better viewed with some soft backlighting.  This can prevent eyestrain and also provide a more professional appearance.  LED lighting is perfect for this, since they are small and easy to place in compact areas, don’t give off heat that might damage the television, and are much quieter than compact fluorescents thereby eliminating any competition for the sound from your TV.  LED lights can also provide thousands of color combinations, and can be dimmed to provide softer light at different times of day.

Visual arts are also benefiting from LED technology.  Many artists are experimenting with LED lighting on their paintings, sculptures, and installation pieces.  With so many different color combinations and the fact that lighting can be very narrowly directed, LED light bulbs are a wonderful addition to experimental art pieces.  Of course, all of these different uses have one particular thing in common.  They all require lighting that is energy efficient, long-lasting, and maintenance free.  When lighting becomes a hobby, it’s usually important to keep the costs low and limit the number of replacements.  Because LED light bulbs fit the bill, they are an easy replacement option for the current lighting technology.
