Couldnt have said it better myself. Also, if you find one thats half of the price of everything on the market, expect about half the performance. The led market is always changing, so prices are all over the place. While i feel the leds i got were a good value for the light they produce, they may not stack up so well today $$ wise. The one thing you can count on is that all the leds will produce more light per amp used than incandescent bulbs (mine draws about half the amps as my bulbs did, with lots more light). I have built my own led light setups, and the watt rating given will not be what they actually do, a led driven to 100% rated capacity will have a much shorter life than one driven to 80% of its rated capacity.
