Halogen Oven Lights VS LED Bulbs
As we know that halogen oven light has existed for many years. Halogens are a type of incandescent light bulb which uses halogen gas in order to produce light. This means these bulbs are extremely hot, it's very suitable for using in the oven.
But as for the development of the science and research, people find that the LED bulb light is more energy saving than halogen. LED stands for Light Emitting Diodes. Put simply, this type of light bulb uses a diode rather than a heated filament to produce light.
Then the problem is coming, does the LED bulb light can be used for the oven?
Before make a conclusion, we should make clear that the oven will produce high temperature when it’s working. So put this problem as the first consideration issue.
According to a research by online, we find that most experienced people still like halogen light, even LED bulb light can be used for the oven. So why? Let’s compare these two types of lights for you.

Yes |
After comparing these two types of lights, we know that LED bulb light is power saving than Halogen light, but the temperature resistance is below 120℃. It’s not suitable for the oven usage. But it’s wide using in other lighting, such as dinner room, the kitchen, or others.
Since the LED bulb is more power saving than halogen light, there are many manufacturers already research and produce the LED bulb light which features high temperature resistance. You may already use this kind of light now, the good news is our company also follow this step and it’s on the way to produce this kind of light.
If you don’t find a suitable LED bulb light for oven, please still use halogen light. There are various of oven lamp for your choice.
The future is promising, let’s expecting it!
