Longevity is one thing as you get years of use out of a LED bulb while an incandescent give you a little over 1,000 hours light before going out suddenly. Compact Florescent Lights (CFLs) last about 8 times longer.
But, LEDS stay lit for 50,000 plus hours and instead of going out they slowly dim instead. However, that’s not all. LEDs use a fraction of the power that either of the other two uses. So, LED bulbs last longer and save you cash while they provide the same amount of light using a fraction of the energy.

First, they have to be made by a known manufacturer of quality LED lighting. Next, they have to be able to put out enough light to replace bulbs you are currently using in your home. Finally, they have to be an economical alternative to your current lighting.
