I appreciate your willingness to choose LED bulbs, they sound good.

I don’t much appreciate having Government, that can’t handle the logistics of plowing the snow out of the streets, telling me I need to use LED bulbs.

Who gets to choose?

Exactly. Who gets to choose.

If the consideration were only the cost of the electricity vs the price of the new bulbs, we wouldn’t switch until the new bulbs were a LOT more competitive.

Of course, the real “problem” is that the government doesn’t want new electric power plants built, and wants us to use actually LESS electric power, because they’re taking 10% of the generating capacity offline.
