Re: LED Fundrasing info!

So, replacing my 11 watt CFL with a 7 watt LED for my outside light (on a post by the driveway) will save me about $4 a year. Why $4? Because in cold weather (<25F) I leave the CFL powered up 24/7 otherwise it won't start up via the light sensor. LEDs are OK in cold weather (right?).

Still, $4 a year is OK, payback is 5 years at $20. I will propose to the team to sell them at $16.76 each though.
