[QUOTE="rhodesbe, post: 2654979, member: 2415"] Over the course of a year, I've replaced incadescents with LEDs at my place. I now use about 12% of the wattage, and leave my outdoor lights on all the time. I most recently bought these really super-bright PAR38 style LEDs for my outdoor floodlight fixtures. They are better performing, stronger, and have a wider dispersion than the halogen bulbs they replaced. I have like 8 different fixture/bulb types, and while LEDs in general can be 50X more expensive ($0.98 vs $50), the gains in efficiency and performance will pay them back in less than 2 years. Cree, Phillips, and Feit are good brands in my experience. [/QUOTE]
