Default Why not LED bulbs?

The government says you are to use LED.

This is not open to discussion.


Why not LED bulbs? Have you ever considered the pollution and pollutants
resulted from manufacturing LEDs?

One heck of a lot less than for the useless compact flourescent -
particularly when you consider the lifespan. In a parts per million
basis they MAY have more lead than incandescent or flourescent bulbs -
but there is a lot less of the bulb to start with. The led "chip" is
pretty tiny. The driver circuitry CAN be built with lead free solder.
- and remember - a GOOD LED will take the place of 10 or more of the
older bulbs.
