I just replaced four gas-guzzling incandescent lamps in my dining room chandelier with four LED lamps that screw into the same bases. Went from 240 watts to 6 watts, total.
The usual complaint about LED lamps is the cost. But prices are coming down fast: these were only about $4 each at Costco. Each contains 21 white LEDs, and they basically last forever, which means I won't constantly be replacing lamps in this fixture. If the world converts to LED lighting, we won't need to build any more power plants, and we can all use KW amps guilt-free :) Wayne N6KR ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
