LED lighting is generally held to be superior to other lighting sources due to its brightness, lesser environmental impact, and long life. Very often used in bathrooms, LED bathroom lighting has several advantages.

High voltage or HV LEDs operate on mains voltage 240V AC and have a current stabilization device fitted into the chip of the HV LED. This eliminates the requirement for a capacitor which is used in conventional LEDs to convert the voltage from mains 240V into the required DC output voltage. The capacitor is the weakest link in the chain and is often the first component to fail.
