Correct. It doesn't make economic sense to replace a *working* CFL with an LED. There's not enough electricity savings to make up for the cost difference.
Picked up the Feit's last night. 60w Led for 11.99 or 11.79. 1st bulb acts like a flourescent and blinks on like the starter type. Second bulb is a dud, third is nice.
Not very good, 6 bulbs and the first 2 were not right. I'll light the remaining 3 tonight probably, so I can call Feit. These are supposed to be warm white, but they are pretty white/blue.
I put the one that works in my swing arm over my metal lathe. It's way brighter than the 75w equiv cfl that was in there. So that was a pleasant surprise.
that a 60w equiv beats a 75w equiv. That 75w equiv cfl never seemed to be what it should have been.
Thank you for reinforcing that I made the right decision to buy Osram for a couple of bucks more.
Nice huh? My preference is for the daylight type as we like the whiter light. You should see our bathrooms with 3 of that size over the mirror plus 2 cfl in the ceiling fan.
Might want to hold off till these incandescents become available:
Don't count on it. The MIT PR mill is famous for publishing nonsense.
