Multiple companies have been cited in a patent infringement lawsuit in Texas. Light Transformation Technologies LLC has filed two patent infringement lawsuits in the Eastern District of Texas against a number of companies, including LED makers, distributors, optics companies and even Volkswagen Group of America.

Energy Efficiency
LED light bulbs emit very little heat. This saves a lot of energy, as 98 percent of the energy used by a traditional incandescent light bulb can be lost as heat energy instead of light energy.
Life Of The Bulb
LED light bulbs last about 50 to 100 times as long as an incandescent light bulb. They also last about five to ten times as long as a fluorescent light bulb.
Durability
Having no filament or tube helps to make an LED light bulb last longer than an incandescent bulb. They also resist the effects of heat and cold much better than incandescent bulbs.
Safe Manufacturing
The dangerous element of mercury is used when creating an incandescent bulb. Mercury is not used when creating an LED light bulb. This reduces employee and environmental health concerns.
Battery Life
When using an LED light bulb in a flashlight instead of an incandescent bulb, the life of the batteries can be increased by 10 to 15 times.
