Do LEDs produce heat like incandescent/neon bulbs?

0

Incandescent lights are basically electric space heaters that give off light as a byproduct. They are highly inefficient, transforming the majority of the power they consume as heat. Although LEDs are significantly more efficient in point-source lighting applications (i.e., not lighting up an entire room), they are still not even close to being 100% efficient. Therefore, although LEDs will also produce heat, it is at significantly reduced levels when compared to incandescent/neon systems.
