New LED lighting technology embraced by consumers, Total Cost of Ownership saves money over incandescent, fluorescent bulbs This is a good article but he does specify that LED's are spotlights only. This is not the case with LightenUp LED's although our bulbs do not 'throw' light quite as far as a normal incandescent bulb they are certainly an acceptable replacement for one. If you have a 40W incandescent bulb in a fixture now and you replace it with our G603S you will be very happy with the result. The same goes for our G605C for a 60W replacement or our G706C for a 75W replacement.
