L.E.D. BULBS WILL NOT WIPE OUT FLUORESCENT LIGHTING? I’ve got 4 LED bulbs. One — a Scientific Lighting indoor flood in the basement hallway — has worked well for a couple of years now. I just replaced another, a Sylvania promising 8 years of life, after about 6 months. Another is in my study and still works, but flickers occasionally. The fourth, in a hard-to-change fixture in my bathroom, is doing fine after about a year and I hope it lasts. Overall, though, I’m not sure the longevity promises here are going to turn out much better than the ones for compact fluorescent bulbs.
