Nowhere. You have to skip them and go all the way back to candles.

You enjoy throwing money away?

LEDs are the best.

I’m going to need a few. My office replaced my thermostat from one where you can set the desired temperature to one that just says warmer/colder and the colder is not cold enough.

My solution is to put an incandescent light bulb under the thermostat and when I get hot turn the lamp on.

The legacy design prevents efficient cooling of the power converters required by LED bulbs, leading to premature failures.

I call BS on this. We built a new house 7 years ago and I’ve had to change several LED’s multiple times.

I've had these fluorescent bulbs in my lr since 2010. They came with a 5 yr warranty. Still going strong.
