Question 5 special bulb shape Solution: comparison of the bulb we are ready to replace and CFL and LED products that are consider buying Although the price of LED lighting is higher than traditional energy-saving lamps and fluorescent lamps, but considering the cost of energy and the latter part of the environmental impact, it is worthy of buying LED lights.
