LED vs. Halogen

LED
1. LED
Light-Emitting Diode: a semiconductor diode that emits light when conducting current and is used in electronic equipment, esp. for displaying readings on digital watches, calculators, etc.
2. LED
A magical light that has no other match for it. It consumes just a couple of volts (2.4 - 4.8) and only 20-50 milliamps, and in return it provides a steady and constant light source with a lifespan of almost 11 years!
3. LED
An electronic light source. The first LED was built in the 1920s. With the development of high efficiency and high power LEDs, it has become possible to incorporate LEDs in lighting and illumination. Replacement light bulbs have been made as well as dedicated fixtures and LED lamps. LEDs are used as street lights and in other architectural lighting where color changing is used. The mechanical robustness and long lifetime is used in automotive lighting on cars, motorcycles and on bicycle lights. This image depicts the difference in brightness and color temperature using a halogen bulb vs. an led bulb in vehicle cabin lighting.
