LEDs less efficient than fluoro?? Are we being lied to by TPTB

typical LED 806 lumen lamp under 7 watts

I'd say that's a "no"
Actually if you look carefully fluoros are in the 60-70l/With LEDS in
the 50-60l/W range so the fluoros have a slight edge, but its not worth
getting excited about - lighting perception is logarithmic and you wont
notice the difference.

Well then why are you being forced to dump your old fluoros and adopt
LEDs then? Is this another EU scam to fleece everyone?

I think he asked if it were worth it, because they were flickering or
summat. I'd certainly hang a LED compatible tube in the old fitting, if
the fitting was OK.

I like LED light bettter than any other.
