LED vs CFL vs Incandescent

Both CFLs and LEDs use considerably less electricity than traditional bulbs. As you can see, buying longer-lasting, more efficient light bulbs can really pay off over time. Over a 23-year period, it will cost you over $200 (and many trips to the hardware store) to keep one 60-watt lamp lit with incandescent bulbs.
