This table compares the 10-year cost of owning and using a 75w incandescent,. . . to the cost of owning 3 alternatives:
. . . . . . 53w high-efficiency (halogen-filled) incandescent lamp,
. . . . . . 13w CFL, and
. . . . . . 17w LED lamp.
The 10-year cost is more than 5 times the cost of owning a CFL,
. . . that produces about the same amount and quality of light.
