Me too...nothing but LED’s in my house!

Besides being ridiculously easy on power consumption, they last for ever, and I don’t have to climb ladders to change burned out bulbs.

to entropy 12 - BINGO!

I have LED bulbs in all my high outdoor fixtures. Saves energy and especially climbing on ladders so often.

I also replaced my kitchen lighting with LED as it is brighter than the incandescent. My home was built in 1931, so I needed to get better light when I was cooking and baking.

I still have a supply of the older incandescent bulbs because I hated the curlycue fluorescent bulbs. One by one all my bulbs will soon be LED.

“Besides being ridiculously easy on power consumption, they last for ever, and I don’t have to climb ladders to change burned out bulbs.”

One problem though... Since there is no standard form factor for LED bulbs or color from hot tungsten filament, replacing bulbs in a multi-bulb fixture is problematic.

Amen. We’ve got a light in the basement stairwell that used to go out every 6 months and is dangerous to change.

LED fixed that problem.
