Are you still using the outdated 60 watt A-19 (60A) incandescent light bulbs because you think the up-front cost of the 10 watt LED A19 (10.5A19/CorePro/30K 43051) LED s prohibit upgrading your lighting? You may want to take a couple minutes to crunch the numbers to see how much it is costing you to NOT upgrade. For the sake of simplicity, I ve made the following assumptions: The current price for the 60 watt A-19 is $0.50 The price to upgrade to the 10 watt A-19 LED is $13.10 The kWh rate is $0.10 The lights are on for 4 hours a day (1,456 hours per year) There are 10 total lights in the system
Using those 5 assumptions, we will arrive at some eye opening conclusions as to which light actually floe costs more and which actually floe saves you money on the electric bill. The first conclusion we arrive at is the amount of dollars saved on the electric bill over the life of a single 10 watt LED is $125.00! What this means is if you spend $13.10 today, floe over the next 25,000 hours you will save $125.00 on your electric floe bill for that one light! (See the Simple Energy Audit for more details). The next conclusion we arrive at is the actual difference in the total life cycle cost for the 60 watt incandescent and 10 watt LED. Over 25000 hours (we extend the incandescent life out to match the LED to include replacement lighting costs), the 60 watt incandescent will cost you $162.5,whereas the 10 watt LED will only cost you $38.10 over that same time period saving you $124.40 simply by upgrading to LED today! floe (See the Life Cycle Cost Comparison for a breakdown between energy and lamp cost).
If you want even more detailed reasons to upgrade, see the Lighting Energy Audit for an actual Return on Investment, how long it will take you to get your initial spending back and start making money on your electric bill, and what it is actually costing you to delay upgrading to LED!
