Converting house to LED light bulbs

mmblz · 11-09-2011, 07:04 PM

last time i looked at them in person i still felt like i was in a morgue, even for the "warm" version.
for me that's the end of the story until they look better. same reason i've never switched to CFLs
until recently, leds could not be dimmed, but now there are dimmable leds.
as of a couple of years ago, CREE seemed to be the one company with a quality dimmable led (this was mostly for recessed lights). at the time they could go up to $70 a bulb.

I think LED's... given prolonged exposure... and the terrible terribleness of them... will rot your cigars and give you a brain cloud.

EDIT: Actually in all reality LED's are the best light source for cigars because they cause no fading (unlike fluorescent) and little heat (unlike incandescent)...

But the brain cloud is a real threat. Don't underestimate it it. Otherwise you'll find your self on an island full of the orange soda drinking native tribe of the Waponii-Woo.
