LEDs are fine but expensive. So will you be OK with it when the government declares combustion engines to be illegal?

There’s nothing silly about it, the government telling you what lightbulbs you can and can’t use is just plain evil. It’s none of the government’s damned business. If I want to use the most inefficient bulbs money can buy I’m the one paying the bill, it’s my RIGHT and the government should F off and balance their own budget.

If LEDs win in the market place, so be it. But NOT by government decree.

Screw them.

Get used to it? I DON’T think so. They can KMA and I have enough in storage to use until I’m gone and to pass on to 2 generations.

LED is great for focus or “spot” light, but they are not designed as a flood style light.

Agree 100% on LEDs. Our state (WI) is offering big rebates to people who buy the LED bulbs. Never considered them until I saw them in action. I’m putting them into the kitchen first - recessed - and them will be looking to add them elsewhere. 7-10 watts per, dimmable, and similar output to 65w incandescents without the heat.

Of course you can go somewhere and find a government bureaucracy to lead you around by the nose.

Why a link to candles? Who needs candles if they have enough 100 watt incandescent bulbs to last for 50 years?
