I had to quit using that metaphor because the 6 watt LED bulb I bought for my living room is actually pretty bright.
Yep. LED bulbs are almost at that sweet spot of pricing where I will begin to phase out other bulb technology in my home. [I just realized I am typing under the light of an LED desk lamp.]
LOL! Ya know, when we bought out house there were about 14 can lights that had those friggin’ flourescent (sp?) bulbs in them and I replaced them all with LED bulbs that I think are “rated” as 13 watts. What a difference. Don’t know if the price has come down but they weren’t cheap when I bought them. Been over 3 years and we haven’t replaced one yet. And they’re sure a lot brighter than what was in there.
