An LED apparatus includes an LED component and a current-limiting device. The LED component includes at least one LED having a corresponding current-limiting resistance value. The current-limiting device includes a plurality of PTC devices connected in series. The plurality of PTC devices are capable of effectively sensing the temperature of the LED and are electrically coupled to the LED component. The resistance value of the current-limiting device increases with the increment of sensed temperature. The current-limiting device has a resistance close to or equal to the current-limiting resistance value at a temperature at which the LED operates normally. When the temperature of the LED gradually increases to an abnormal temperature, current allowable to be flowed through the current-limiting device gradually decreases to be lower than LED operating current.
