Solution

The correct option is B

Less


LED needs less electric current to glow compared to the normal bulb. The difference is, an LED does not need to burn filament to produce light. So, weak conductors can be tested with an LED-based tester. For example, materials like salt solutions which conduct electricity less easily than metal can be tested.
