AT THIS TIME, incandescents are still needed, until research and technology catches up. Sorry, but it is true........

I have been disappointed, that corporations, in their "hurry up first to market" development of alternatives have plagued us for years with poor designed and poor quality non incandescent lamps........for starters, think of that "curly" light bulb that was first on the market that contained Mercury and the numbers of them that ended up in landfills.....

Believe me, with Xcel Energy as our for profit, Corporate power *MONOPOLY,* (Not a PUC, anymore) I am more than happy to try to offset their SCANDALOUS electrical rate increases these past years......

The modernization of lamps, should have been preceded by much research and development, without "shoot from the hip" legislation.
(Of course, there were the profit oriented electrical lamp and fixture manufacturing corporations who were gun ho which helped immensely.).......

On a similar note, the rush to EV Vehicles frightens me, due to all the individual car manufacturers racing to get their products on the road with in-adequate Research and Development......I also feel that the use of "Lithium" batteries has not been fully researched, nor the manufacturers that use them for certain applications.........Think of the "Boeing Dream Liners" being grounded because of a few lithium batteries being used in the plane's design without proper research and development.

The Corporations combined "Race to Market" and their "Race to the maximum bottom line", is going to be our downfall......
