Yes, you can replace just the one lamp with an LED.Â* The consequence
is you
will reduce total power consumption of the fixture.

Yeah but if he lives in a liberal-governed state or municipality, he'd
probably need to file forÂ* an exemption first- and appeal it twice after
the initial turn-down. Then he would need to purchase a $150 permit,
hire a licensed unionized electrician using an equal-opportunity illegal
alien helper to hold the ladder, then two inspections before flipping
the switch -)


You are right on!!!!!! You might also caution him to hide all his
plastic straws when the inspectors arrive.
