Perhaps we can make this community about lighting rather than LED lighting? Arc lamps are still useful and some research indicates that incandescent lamps can be made energy efficient.

If no then perhaps you should create "LEDLighting" to use instead.

metal halide lamps, wow ;_; i wonder if you will even find the lamps and the components needed to replace them in years to come...

I have lots of spares and the lamps last forever. I even replaced a failed high voltage power supply a few months ago. I have two with 70 W and one with 140 W. Everything else but three dinosaur halogens is LED.

I also make about net half of my electricity myself, so some wa(s)ttage is ok.
