ADVANTAGES OF LED SIGNALS

Long life 1,00,000 hours Pre-focused Better visibility Very good short view No focusing on curved track Same type of ECR for all aspect and signal No phantom effect

WHETHER LED EMITS NOMINATED COLOUR ONLY?

A good quality LED emits nominated colour only There is very remote possibility that it may emits wrong colour if biased current changes
