I’m in a nasty frame of mind right now, and this is what my 'tism brain decided to laser focus on for several hours. I’m mad that my light bulbs cost 10x more than they used to, and don’t last any longer, and my power bill is higher than ever.
Yeah yeah, I know, it’s probably just capitalism shitting it up on purpose for profit. And bulb science is probably solid, I guess. I’m just pissed off that I just barely managed to scrape through this pay period with $2.78 left in the bank before I default on my mortgage.
Anyway, any lightbulb science comrades got any info?
Programmed obsolescense, the bulbs in my bathroom have to be replaced after 1 or 2 months which is pure torture, however i have 3 LED bulbs i have been using for more than 3 years without problem, i also have a CFL one that has been working since 2013, however it doesn’t put out a lot of light sadly so it’s just sitting in a drawer rn.
