Really? I have my room lights on 24/7 and the savings from LEDs and cool room CFLs. I hate yellow incandescents.

They are planning a 30% rate hike soon.
Blaming a natural gas shortage due to supply.
Of course the moonbats are against new Nat gas pipelines.
This on top of the huge rate hike anticipated with Cape Wind.

LEDs in natural white and warm white are good and use much less power and last longer than florescents. LEDs here (strip lights in tubes that are made to substitute for florescent tubes) use a third of the power of LEDs while yielding more light and more pleasant light (colors above). I prefer the natural white. Some others prefer the warm white.

The LED tube lights here are 12-volt and wired to a circuit powered by a battery array, but there are similar lights made for grid-connected houses with 120-volt circuits. Some of the various kinds of lights for 120-volt circuits may need an adapter. Others might not (something to find out about when browsing). There are all kinds of LED lights—tube lights, strip lights, bulbs and others. The bulbs should be available at a local Walmart at some of the lowest prices.

When i lived in Norwood 3 years ago my light bill was half of what it is here in Canton.
Norwood has it’s own electric company, Norwood light and Cable or whatever they call it.
It was pretty cheap, now i’m paying double each month and live in a smaller place.
