RE: GE Smart LED light bulb promises 17 years of service, nine-watt draw
40W lamps are fairly useless. I did however do a job about 25
years ago where I found pairs of 60W lamps being used for decorative
purposes in wall lights. I changed them for 40W giving a saving of 1/3
in electricity costs. A low tech solution but there was a lot of
lights. I would use LED lamps for the same purpose. The low energy we
have now usually don't give enough light to be practical and LED stop
lights on cars are useless in day time. These are not well developed
enough and are too expensive. Go back to the drawing board and come up
with something decent. Intel said they have one that can be used as a
street lamp. That may be handy it would save on labour keep changing
the things.
