No, hexagon lights do not use a lot of electricity. They use energy-efficient LEDs that draw low power, so a typical system usually adds only a few dollars a month to your bill even with daily use.
The short answer
Hexagon panels are LED, which is the most efficient mainstream lighting technology. LEDs convert most of their energy into light rather than heat, so they deliver bright output for a fraction of the power an old halogen setup would draw.
Quick summary
Hexagon LED lighting is cheap to run. The bigger the system and the longer it runs each day, the higher the cost, but even large setups stay modest.
What it actually costs
Your running cost depends on three things: the total wattage of your system, how many hours a day it runs, and your electricity rate. Because LEDs are so efficient, the numbers stay small.
- Low wattage. LED panels sip power compared with halogen or incandescent.
- You control the draw. Dimming and running colour scenes rather than full white lowers consumption further.
- Less heat. Efficient lighting also means less wasted heat, which helps in warm Australian rooms.
How to keep costs low
-
Dim when you can
You rarely need full brightness. Dimming cuts power and looks better in the evening.
-
Use scenes
Colour and mood scenes draw less than full white output.
-
Switch off empty rooms
The simplest saving of all, and easy with app or remote control.

Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to run hexagon lights?
Very little. LED hexagon panels draw low power. A typical system running a few hours a day usually adds only a few dollars a month, depending on your system size and electricity rate.
Are hexagon lights energy efficient?
Yes. They use LED technology, which turns far more of the energy into light and far less into heat than old halogen or incandescent fittings.
Do RGB hexagon lights use more power?
Running colours is still low power. White light at full brightness is usually the highest draw, and even that is modest compared with older lighting.
