And it's important to mention that "high end" CFLs now cost about $1 each. You can get bulbs at Home Depot for $4 for a pack of four that turn on immediately, don't flicker, and are available in three color profiles including a warm one that looks very much like an incandescent.

- lucisferre 15y agoWhere LED is valuable for me is in the dimmable category. I have "dimmable" CFLs and they are terrible, they barely dim and if you lower the dimmer too far they either blink or go off entirely. CFLs are just not dimmable.
