Thanks. Fluorescents are cheaper, but I have decided on the
Costco leds.


They may be cheaper to buy, but the LEDs will be a LOT cheaper in
the long run when you consider their energy consumption AND their
life expectancy.

I don't buy the advertised life of any lighting. I just and another
pig tail die today. I've lost more of them than incandescent bulbs
in the last five years, despite being outnumbered at least 3:1.


But it's not even a debatable issue.
My LED's have already outlasted any fluorescent tubes I've ever had by
at least 2 fold.
I would bet the farm that I'll get another 10 years out of them.
A safe guess would be 20.

I've never had a tube last more than 18 months without starting to fail.



I find glad resent love gating iffy.



Jeeeeeeez. I find fluorescent lighting iffy.





And what about the "in the class set and laundry room two" ????
Don't you hate the spell checkers on cell phones?


I laugh at SWMBO's text messages. She never reads them before
sending. Some are really funny.
