I started replacing with LEDs a few years ago. All going strong.

I've used ~100 year old incandescent bulbs that are still glowing as good as new. Granted, they haven't been cycled on/off continually during that time, but they have lasted years, which is a testament to their quality.

If you don’t use them they last forever.

OTOH, based on 2 hours a day with a 100 watt bulb you would have saved hundreds of dollars with an LED.
