LEDs generally draw much lower current than incandescent bulbs.
| DDP® LED Lamp | Incandescent Bulb | ||
| 6S6L120-CWX | 11mA | 6S6/120V | 50mA |
| 120PSBL-NWX | 5.8mA | 120PSB | 25mA |
| 387L-X1 | 16mA | 387 | 40mA |
| 1819L-X-CX | 17mA | 1819 | 40mA |
While lower power consumption reduces operating costs, it also reduces wear on other components in the application such as transformers, batteries and power converters.
