Yay! It’s American to have a choice in what kind of lightbulbs you want! Winning!

Regular bulbs heat in the winter which is an added bonus. Having the regular incandescents is a blessing for my “candle” like lights which really look better with warm light.

I also like the LED (the non-squiggles) because they’re bright and white. They’re also relatively cool for summer. But unfortunately, I don’t think the technology is quite “there” yet. The LEDs pop pretty frequently (at least a couple of duds in an expensive ($20!) six pack pop almost as soon as they’re put in the fixture!) so buying them for me is pretty limited.

Hated the Compact Florescent Lights (mercury in their disposal)...and did the regular lights until they started making LED lights with sunlight spectra. Now I have LEDs with millions of color choices (and special schemes like fire crackling) and controlled by Alexa. Each room (even each light) on off dimmed and color by voice. Being woken by light and sound is interesting.
