LED’s are now about $25.00 at Home Depot but I still wouldn’t buy them epxect to use it very hard to reach locations like a can light in a 20′ ceiling. While an LED may last 25,000 hours that only means that the last diode in the bulb will last that long, all the others have died along the way. I don’t know the exact numbers but it may be that 10,000 hours in your 60 watt LED bulb is really only 25 or 30 watts.I’ve used Bright White or Daylight color CFLs in my house for the last 7 years. A four pack at Home Depot is about $9.00. I date each bulb with a marker and find that on average each one lasts about 5 years. I’ll get my shorts in a knot about the mercury when the Feds start worrying about the billions of 4 and 8 foot florescent bulbs used in commercial buildings that end up in the dump every year.
