LED Disadvantages
The spectrum of some white LEDs differs significantly
from a black body radiator, such as the sun or an
incandescent light. The spike at 460 nm and dip at
500 nm can cause the color of objects to be perceived
differently under LED illumination than sunlight or
incandescent sources, due to metamerism.
LEDs do not approximate a "point source" of light, so
cannot be used in applications needing a highly
collimated beam. LEDs are not capable of providing
divergence below a few degrees.
There is increasing concern that blue LEDs and white
LEDs are now capable of exceeding safe limits of the so-
called blue-light hazard as defined in eye safety
specifications.

For example, T5 lamps are 58.3% smaller in diameter
than equivalent T12 lamps, even while producing nearly
as many lumens. Because T5 lamps are brighter per unit
length than T12 lamps, proper luminaire shielding is
more critical.
Different luminaires may significantly affect the operating
temperatures of lamps. This can have significant effects
on the total performance of the luminaire-lamp-ballast
