New generation of LED bulbs a bright idea for your home


The latest generation of bulb is the LED, or light-emitting diode. These new bulbs are dimmable, use about 80% less electricity than incandescent bulbs, and last 25 years. The drawback to these bulbs is the price. A single bulb can cost anywhere between $10-60. However, when you factor in the rebates offered at many stores, there are nearly a dozen bulbs for less than $10. “We all struggle with the long-term math,” said Joel Smith of Puget Sound Energy. “But any of these light bulbs would pay for themselves in a year to a year and a half when compared to an incandescent.”
