John Deere Maintenance Monday: LED lights
Living the Country Life Radio Program with Betsy Freese
Radio interview source: Jason Breuer, product manager, John Deere
In this edition of Maintenance Monday, we're weaving new technology in with the old. Ed from Missouri has an older tractor and wants to upgrade the lights. He currently has the original round, incandescent lamps and is wondering what new replacements are available.
Art Klein with John Deere says Ed is in luck -- the company is now able to replace lights on tractors from the 60s and 70s with LED lighting. It's become the top choice of lighting for many electrical applications, and now farm machinery is joining the revolution.
"They offer very even distribution," Klein says. "They're very easy to use, plus they're easy on the eyes because they provide a light that's very similar to sunlight. They also have incredible life."
Halogen lamps have a life span of somewhere between 400 and 600 hours. LED work lights last up to 40,000 hours.
