True, but over the lifetime of the bulb, that’s nothing...LED’s outlast incandescents by a factor of, IIRC, 50:1. You literally have to break the damn bulb to kill it. Today’s incandescents have a lifetime of 2000 hours - LED’s have a lifetime of over 100,000 hours and they produce significantly less heat.

With the exception of a month or so of summer, heat is a bonus in our climate.
