I'm done with flourescents.

Nearly every bulb in my house has been converted to LED's.

They put out superior quality light relative to flourescent.

Also, they produce no heat.

Regular flourescents aren't dimmable, and the dimmable ones are expensive and dim poorly.

LED's dim magnificently.

If you are using a flourescent bulb on a fixture that you turn on and off a lot, like most fixtures, you will only get 2-3 years out of them. The projected life of 7 years is a pipe dream.

The LED's I've installed say they have a life span of something like 22 years, and the specialty light store I buy from says you're likely to get it.
