Try finding a bulb for a heat lamp that’s not incandescent. Heat lamps have saved plumbing from bursting and livestock from freezing to death. Stupid democRATS just can’t leave well enough alone.
Those silly screw tail leds don’t last like they promised. I drop them off at Walmart and the box hardware stores when they go out. Strategically placed around the store at various shelf locations.
“Those silly screw tail leds don’t last like they promised.”
I started replacing with LEDs a few years ago. All going strong.
“Try finding a bulb for a heat lamp that’s not incandescent.”
My sis and her ex burned down their house using an incandescent bulb to keep a puppy warm.
Much safer was to provide heat.
Heat lamps are exempted. They aren’t primarily “(visible) light producers”. If you’re nervous about it anyway, Amazon has lots of them today.
They don't but LEDs do and they do it much cheaper. I don't think heat lamps are banned but if they are there are real heat lamp substitutes available as well as heat strips. I have a regular heater hooked up to a thermostatic switch which only comes on when needed.
LED lamps are superior in every way. I have a five light bar in my bathroom because old people need more light and they run for the same cost as a single 60 watt bulb and for a real eye opener get one of the multiple bulbs made for your garage and actually be able to see something for a change.
I am 85 years old and can tell you for sure I hate our rights stealing government as it is now but LED bulbs are just better and cheaper to operate. The Incandescent bulbs would disappear even if they were left on the market because people may be slow to accept change but they will recognize better products. Same goes for the reengineered low volume flush toilets they are vastly better than the old crappers, just try them before condemning them. I admit I nearly always use the long flush mode out of habit mostly. Can't say the same for dishwashers and other household appliances don't know if it is design flaws or just sloppy manufacturing.
How about those LED powered giant TV's like Costco has, $495 for 75 inch this month, less than a 17 inch tube TV used to cost and it uses much less energy.
