You won't find LED's for $1/bulb, but the total cost of ownership over X years is massively in favor of the LED.
Also I simply find it convenient that LED's just. don't. die. I haven't had to change a single bulb since I upgraded ~4 years ago.
- tbyehl 9y agoI had one out of around 50 die over ~3 years, which I'm sure is much better than I experienced with incandescents and CFLs. Smart bulbs are so cheap now that I've obsoleted nearly all of my "dumb" LEDs.
