LED is weird light. I have a couple of head lamps for fishing that have
9 separate bulbs, that one is bright enough to see your line at night.
For camping, I have a crank type LED with 8 bulbs, I love it. Aside from
the whirring noise bothering some campers here and there, it never needs
batteries, used it all season and never had to worry about it.


I got a feeling everybody will get used to them, and we'll end up with
them lighting our houses when production costs come down.
I've heard they're real efficient.

There's nothing "weird" about LED light. It makes for great nightlights,
and staircase lights.


I'm sure some light spectrum analysis could qualify the "weirdness."
But I won't go there. Personally I like incandescent.
Warm.
Want to argue vacuum tube versus transistor sound?
You can find somebody to argue with.
