Are LED lights safer than fluorescent lights?
While florescent lights emit some radiation, LED emit nothing. There are those who recommend to keep a safe distance from any florescent/CFL light because of this. Currently the most energy efficient light source is LED. It saves up to 97% electricity! There are other types of light bulbs that use less electricity than florescent and cost less than LED such as mercury bulbs etc. These bulbs, however aren't suitable for domestic use because they have a few limitations: 1) They require long time to start. Can you imagine having light 2 minutes after flipping the switch? 2) They don't produce white light. Only a kind of yelowish-orange light. For these reasons mercury lights are used currently only for roads lighting.
Fluorescent lights are safe unless you enjoy breaking them into a cereal bowl and huffing the vapor. You've named three types of lights that represent virtually the entire market. There aren't many alternatives out there.
led light safer than mercury contained cfl long life than cfl low energy consumption than cfl alternatives is almost none but is developing like light paints that emit more enrgy and easy to use but its in lab not working perfectly there also others are optic fibre lights scientist working on material that absorb sunlight and than re emit it but we can say that are no alternatives
