The prices have really come down

I was an early adopter. My wife made fun of me because every time we went to the store I had to stop and look at the light bulbs.

What I hated was passing laws to kill the incandescent

A couple of years back, I went into a Home Depot for new lighting for my attic, opting for fluorescent. The salesman told me he had refitted all of his home lights with LED’s. At the time LED’s were very new and extremely costly. I remember telling him that once the Chinese started making them in bulk, they would quickly whore out the market and the prices would tumble. Early adopting in tech and electronics always puts you very long on cost.
