The place we currently live in has halogen lights (70w), which look nice but drain the electric.
Was thinking of replacing them, some or all I am not too sure yet.
The new LED bulbs cost £5 each which would take me around a year to pay back due to energy savings.
Will cost me a fair bit initially but I am hoping I can feel the energy savings in my monthly bill.
Has anyone else here had a similar experience? What would you do in this situation?
I thought to myself, I could always put the old style bulbs back in if/when we move out and take the LED bulbs with me as spares to make the savings last even longer!?
non frugal people will laugh and say "you will save pennies, its not even worth it"
but I am thinking of long term savings, even saving £1 or £2 a month adds up, especially when it takes little effort. Sort of an investment with minimal risk. (the risk is that the light bulb may fail before you have made your money back).
