LED stands for Light Emitting Diode and they are much more energy efficient and produce less heat than the traditional incandescent light bulbs. They also have a longer life making them attractive for those who want to save energy, and the time it takes to buy and replace traditional light bulbs. It is taking a while but everyone seems to be switching from the traditional light bulb to these longer lasting, energy efficient LEDs. I’m not sure if this is true across the country yet, but here in California our street lights are being replaced with LED powered lights that are not only brighter, but will last longer and result in less outages. In addition to street lights some new cars and trucks are taking advantage of the longer life and efficiency of LEDs in their interior, dashboards, and brake lights. It’s just the smarter choice.

That’s why we here at Mable’s want you to know about these LED Light Bulb Replacements. It’s a little difficult to find a lamp, or lighting fixture with LEDs already built into it. Which is why we like these retro fitted LED lights that screw right into a standard 120V light socket. When your old lights burn out, which they will, you can just screw in these long life (up to 10 years) LED light bulbs. Our friends over at ThinkGeek also believe these are a great idea and they have one of the lowest prices for these types of replacements.
