I hope the price on LED bulbs comes down some more soon--$11 still seems awful steep for a 60 watt equivalent bulb. It would have to save a lot of electricity and last a very long time to ever pay off.
Over the years, I have replaced most of the regular incandescent bulbs at my place with compact fluorescents. The CF bulbs last a fairly long time and produce much less heat than a regular bulb, suggesting greater efficiency. The prices on CF bulbs is way less than they were when they first came out. I do still use incandescent bulbs in locations where I want some heat, like the pump house and the dog house. I have a lifetime supply stored in my basement.
The only places I can see that would be real practical to use the expensive LED bulbs are in locations where it is difficult to change the bulbs and where the light is kept on all the time. We used LEDs in some high exit lights at church, since they required using a 12 foot ladder to service the lights. Hopefully the LED lights will last a long time there and no old men will have to climb high ladders so often.
I sure am impressed with my LED flashlights. Good light and the batteries last for YEARS rather than days like the old lights did.
