LED lights use virtually no energy

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I’m a believer now and I’m one of those old cranks that stocked up on the old bulbs.

Whispering, 95% are still open, talking about schools.

Why is he whispering?

Is it a secret?

“...I’m one of those old cranks that stocked up on the old bulbs.”

That’d be me. Still got a bunch of 800 Lumen 60W Warm White bulbs around. But the low power usage of LED bulbs, plus the available 2700K Warm White color temperature...

I’m a fan.

You got a space you want LIT UP? In every fixture that can accommodate the larger size, how about A21-sized 150W-equivalent 2700K LED bulbs that punch out 2300 Lumens?

They only burn about 23W, and — MY GOD! — you can SEEEE!

Can’t use them in fixtures with any less bulb clearance than a typical workshop drop light, though.

So, for the more typical fixtures that’ve been rated for 60W per bulb since forever, try 100W-equivalent 2700K LED bulbs that belt out 1600 Lumens — DOUBLE the light of the old 60W incandescent lamps.

MAYBE in a bedside fixture you’d still wanna stop down to a 40W equivalent bulb, but anywhere you really want light — with the low power consumption of these LED units, Brother you can have LIGHT, and STILL be saving electricity.
