Thanks for mentioning those GE tube replacements. I'm looking at a couple of fixtures right now.



Yeah - I'll be honest, a big reason I went for it was that they are MUCH less fragile. It used to be a fairly common occurrence that I'd hit a board into the fixtures on my ceiling. With the LEDs, I no longer get covered in broken glass a mercury powder. Instead, the bulb just flexes.


Probably also less susceptible to accelerated aging caused by on-off cycles.
