We went LED a few years ago. Haven’t replaced a bulb since. Has helped, along with a new AC to keep electric bill in check.

I also have an all-LED home, except for the lights on my aquarium and lizard tanks. The fish have a fluorescent bulb and the lizards need incandescent bulbs to generate warmth. Just received a box of 85 T10 frosted 25w bulbs yesterday, which I ordered after reading about the incandescent ban coming HERE. The green idiots seem to have forgotten about lizards, chicks, puppies, and other tender organisms’s need for warmth.

You are lucky then. Mine last maybe 6 to 9 months, start flickering and then fail. I have a few that have lasted a long tine, but most of the LED’s that I have gotten follow what I call the “Green Rule” - They cost twice as much and work half as well.
