[Text|High-tech LED Huang Yaping] With the rapid growth of LED lighting demand, more and more companies have begun to get involved in LED lighting in recent years, which has led to fierce market competition and constant price wars. In the last two years, companies have valued cost, so the focus has been on cost reduction.
