What makes them special? Well, aside from the fins that you see in the image, these bulbs will last a good 17 years(!) when used for four hours per day, every day. They also distribute the light evenly, in all directions, rather than focused on one area. Most of all, they are super-efficient. The nine watt bulbs give off the same amount of light as a 40 watt incandescent bulb, so you are saving some serious power, and only replacing them two or three times in a lifetime. The downside? They&#8217;ll cost somewhere between $40-50 each. Yeah, that&#8217;s pricey for a light bulb, but did you think the future would be cheap?\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<br clear=\"all\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Tags:<\/strong><br \/>\n\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gearlive.com\/news\/tag\/electricity\" rel=\"tag\">electricity<\/a>,<br \/>\n\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gearlive.com\/news\/tag\/energy+smart\" rel=\"tag\">energy smart<\/a>,<br \/>\n\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gearlive.com\/news\/tag\/energy+smart+led+bulb\" rel=\"tag\">energy smart led bulb<\/a>,<br \/>\n\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gearlive.com\/news\/tag\/ge\" rel=\"tag\">ge<\/a>,<br \/>\n\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gearlive.com\/news\/tag\/general+electric\" rel=\"tag\">general electric<\/a>,<br \/>\n\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gearlive.com\/news\/tag\/green\" rel=\"tag\">green<\/a>,<br \/>\n\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gearlive.com\/news\/tag\/household\" rel=\"tag\">household<\/a>,<br \/>\n\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gearlive.com\/news\/tag\/led\" rel=\"tag\">led<\/a>,<br \/>\n\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gearlive.com\/news\/tag\/led+bulbs\" rel=\"tag\">led bulbs<\/a>,<br \/>\n\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gearlive.com\/news\/tag\/light\" rel=\"tag\">light<\/a>,<br \/>\n\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gearlive.com\/news\/tag\/light+bulbs\" rel=\"tag\">light bulbs<\/a>,\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<div style=\"background:#FFCC66; padding:5px; margin-top:5px;\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gearlive.com\/news\/article\/q110-ge-energy-smart-led-light-bulbs\/\" title=\"GE Energy Smart LED light bulbs: Pay to save?\">GE Energy Smart LED light bulbs: Pay to save?<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gearlive.com\/\" title=\"Gear Live\">Gear Live<\/a> on Tue, April 13, 2010 &#8211; 3:49:31\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/al1G4IN_mb9AmG3C_Yv8QXJePKs\/0\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/al1G4IN_mb9AmG3C_Yv8QXJePKs\/0\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/al1G4IN_mb9AmG3C_Yv8QXJePKs\/1\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/al1G4IN_mb9AmG3C_Yv8QXJePKs\/1\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.gearlive.com\/~ff\/rss_2?a=IIwCM5r-3sk:WBVZHmaHpNM:V_sGLiPBpWU\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/rss_2?i=IIwCM5r-3sk:WBVZHmaHpNM:V_sGLiPBpWU\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.gearlive.com\/~ff\/rss_2?a=IIwCM5r-3sk:WBVZHmaHpNM:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/rss_2?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/rss_2\/~4\/IIwCM5r-3sk\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here&#8217;s a look at GE&#8217;s LED light bulbs, which should be hitting stores sometime in the next year.
