Decorators and artists (and everyone else of course!) can rejoice now that LEDs are available in a huge range of types, wattages and most importantly a wide range of \u201ccool\u201d to \u201cwarm\u201d temperatures. And prices have gone down. Gone are the days when LED=ugly blue light. What thrills me the most is that can now buy excellent LED replacements for my hydro-eating halogen bulbs. This means that I can save big bucks (and lots of energy of course) when lighting my exhibition spaces. For example, the LED equivalent of a 50 watt par20 halogen bulb uses only 7 watts!<\/p>\n<p>So \u201cget with the picture\u201d and change those bulbs.  You will not regret it.  <\/p>\n<div class=\"share-this group\"><span class=\"share\">Share &rarr;<\/span><\/p>\n<div><a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/share\" class=\"twitter-share-button\" data-count=\"horizontal\">Tweet<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"plusone\"><g:plusone size=\"medium\" href=\"https:\/\/rakos.com\/marie\/index.php\/light-technology-update-terrific-leds\/\"><\/g:plusone><\/div>\n<div class=\"facebook-like-button\"><iframe src=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/plugins\/like.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Frakos.com%2Fmarie%2Findex.php%2Flight-technology-update-terrific-leds%2F&amp;layout=button_count&amp;show_faces=false&amp;width=200&amp;action=like&amp;colorscheme=light&amp;height=21\"scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"border:none; overflow:hidden; width:200px; height:21px;\" allowTransparency=\"true\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As I write the CFL bulb is now practically obsolete and most of my incandescent bulbs have found there way to the garbage can.
