Default How much power does a 120v 15A lighted switch use anyway?

I'prefer LED, neon emits electric noise.


more lumen/watt from led then neon.


It looks like it's costing 25¢/month for the dozen neon-lit switches.

What noise would I be worried about? I have the normal stuff (phones,
computer, router, etc.) Which would the neon affect and how?


AM radio, close to the lamp tuned to a very weak station, maybe.

BTW, I didn't see ANY LED illuminated switches at ACE or OSH in town!
