I recently tried LED light bulbs for the first time and I’m impressed.

Yep. Whole house except two antique lamps my wife has. 10w each so for decoration not lighting.

Even replace 4 footers with LEDs!

Wait until you start replacing them more often. My house was built in 1984 and these LED bulbs last about 4-6 months. The CFL bulbs were less than that. I have all copper wiring but I don’t know if its the fixture or what but they just don’t last.

To be honest, we have changed most of ours too. Brighter and less ladder climbing. :-)

Me too I was hesitant because 1 bulb costed me like 11 bucks when the old ones for a pack of 4 costed like 2.89. I will admit the LED ones are much brighter and last way longer. Now I’m an LED convert.

Wally-World had 60 and 75 watt LED bulbs for...20 cents each!

You can’t beat that price, and they work great!

I installed LED’s around the perimeter of my shop and leave them on 24/7. I haven’t seen much of an increase in my electric bill. It’s around $5.00 per month.
