well I am a little late to the revolution but I am getting there.

have replaced most of my light bulbs ( Incandescent )
with LED bulbs still have a few that haven't burned out yet
but they will be replaced when they go.

I never used the curly ones … never liked em. they didn't seem
to last as long as advertised.

we lost a lot of good jobs making light bulbs .. many of them union jobs.

I like these LED ones better.

Never bought one of those curly thing with mercury inside. Will never buy one. I can make do with lower wattage incandescent bulbs from Dollar Tree until I can replace all with LEDs. I just turn lights out when not in a room, pretty simple.
