Perfect for a high ceiling application--and GREAT light output, color rendition, and only 12W. They come with an integrated trim, though, so you have to light it. The HALO LED is also very good (I like the CREE better) and have a variety of trim options. You may never had to change them!

With LEDs and CFLs, you're using only 23% of the energy of incandescents. OK, even if you're a bit of a nerd, you're leading the way for the rest of us who need to move off incandescents and onto LEDs and CFLs. At best, I'm at about 20%, and you're at 100% already. I appreciate the links, too. Martha Thanks, Mark, for doing the math on this. With LEDs and CFLs, you’re using only 23% of the energy of incandescents.

As a bit of a nerd, I counted all of the bulbs used throughout my apartment, 23, and did some comparison. Currently, by an assortment of LEDs and CFLs in standard light sockets, I'd use 213 watts if every light were on. If I replaced all 23 bulbs with 40 watt incandescents, I skyrocket to 920 watts.

It is $125 and does not work with all lighting fixture so check it out. It is "screw-in" bulb. Martha, this interesting that Cooper Lighting now is making a LED product. Everyone, just make sure it is for general illumination if this is what you are going for.

I have another desk lamp that I found on the street and repaired that also gives excellent light and both have not burned out, yet.
