Default Save on CFLs and LEDs

The energy savings of an LED over an incandescent light is enormous. And while some may point to a slight increase in energy overhead cost/kwh as more people conserve, not only will the overall cost be much less, but in the longer term, less new facilities to cover peak demand will be needed and capital costs will be lower. It's a no brainer.

Since Jan. 1st, instant coupons (sponsored by NH Saves...a coalition of NH energy suppliers) are available in Lowes, HD and many of the local hardware stores. The LED's, at $10 off each bulb, become pretty economic, not to mention they last more than 20 years and are the right thing for the planet.

$1 off each 1 – 3 pack of ENERGY STAR qualified CFL light bulbs
$3 off each 4 – 5 pack of ENERGY STAR qualified CFL light bulbs
$5 off each 6 – 9 pack of ENERGY STAR qualified CFL light bulbs
$10 off each pack of ENERGY STAR qualified LED light bulbs
