  • Hi Guest - Did you know?
    Hot Topics is a Safe for Work (SFW) forum.

Cor blimey, strike a light guv'nor!

while reading the front of the box it states that they last for 15 years, can this be true and if so wouldn't it almost kill the lightbulb industry ?

If you take a look at the fine print on the package it will say "based on 3 hours use a day it is expected to last" 15 years. The CFL's said the same thing.
 
I still have a mixture of bulbs in my house. I have a couple of rooms that I only go into once a month or so. So they still have the old incandescent bulbs. I still have several CFL bulbs around the house. I have put in LED bulbs in locations that I keep the light for several hours at a time every day like a couple hallways, my TV/computer room, and the kitchen. The package says using the bulb 3 hours a day for a year I would spend 10 cents for the whole year.

I used to have CFL's for exterior lights but changed them to LED. Mainly because if it is really cold the CFL took a minute or two to get up to full brightness. The LED's don't have that problem. When we are having a snow storm or blizzard I like to turn on the outside LED's (that are extra bright -- over 3 times as bright as a old style 80 watt bulb) and leave them on for hours at a time. And I don't feel guilty about "wasting" electricity.
