@jwcph@edavies@yngmar I'm not glossing over it, though. The fact of the matter is a light bulb that could last 1,500 hours is going to be noticeably dimmer than one that only lasts a thousand while using the same amount of power
Perhaps you might be rubbed the wrong way by the cartel making a choice for you, and that's something I can understand. But the operating cost of a light bulb exceeded the purchase cost of a light bulb, so a longer lasting but dimmer bulb is just not ideal.
