I was just answering the question. Read the post I replied to.Let's see. 120-watts for 10 hours a day (for ease of calculation) will be 1200 watt-hours per day, or 1.2 kWh a day. Multiply that by 365 days a year, and we have 438 kWh a year. U.S. average is $0.12 per kWh, or $52.56 a year.
Most people use far more lighting than that. Nearly every switch in the house turns on at least two bulbs, in some rooms as many as six bulbs. People who aren't energy conscience have at least a dozen bulbs on half the day.
Time to buy LED lightbulbs.
And, you really are spending hundreds of dollar extra each year by not going to LED bulbs.
Please show me where two-60 watt incandescent bulbs burning 6-12 hours per day cost me two hundred dollars a year each.
I much prefer the color.
