The US hasn't really embraced LED lighting in all formats yet.
Yet there is good reason to. Check out the harm hazardous conditions CFL
causes. My next project is to get rid of my flurescent tubes.

I ordered some specialty 12V LEDs and 12V motion switches last night
from Amazon. Cheap prices and free shipping direct from China. I got
shipping confirmation from one supplier within two hours. The other was
in my in box this morning. Small world, eh. I tell ya, the US needs to
rethink and remake it's position in the world marketplace. We need to
convert some of those liberal arts diploma mills to science and
engineering schools. If we can't make things we could , at least, design
them.

Ditto on the CFLs. I wish mine would hurry up and burn out. I'm even using them for outdoor lighting
in the hopes the cold weather will kill 'em. Hasn't worked.
