There has been a marked increase in the adoption of UV LEDs for applications that until recently relied upon fluorescent UV lights. UV LEDs offer many benefits over traditional CFL UV lamps. For example, UV LEDs utilize much less energy than their CFL counterparts. UV LEDs are RoHS compliant and they are not toxic if broken. In addition, UV LEDs offer much smaller, more compact sizes than CFL lamps, and UV LEDs are much more resistant to vibration and impact.
