While I understand their popularity and appreciate the far lower energy consumption, a part of me still wants incandescent bulbs back. They had a warm, inviting glow that’s entirely missing from LEDs
- Tijdreiziger 3y agoYou can get that if you buy the ‘filament’ type LED bulbs
- jochem9 3y agoAs the other commenter said, there are bulbs that mimic the filament of an incandescent bulb. On top of that there are designs that go beyond that. E.g. I have a bulb that has LEDs shine light through sculpted plexiglass, creating a beautiful pattern of warm light inside the bulb. This goes beyond what an incandescent bulb can do.
- eternityforest 3y agoI don't think incandescent was ever banned. They just have to meet a certain efficiency, and they are working on photon recycling incandescent builds that actually beat LEDs I think.
