Just when you think that more and more people would embrace LED bulbs as a more cost effective alternative to power hungry incandescent bulbs, the opposite seems to be true. Many people don’t seem to be too keen on replacing their incandescent bulbs just yet. If the reason is that most of the LED bulbs available just can’t seem to compare to those incandescent bulbs in terms of brightness, this new development from GE might just change their minds. The company has just come up with a 27-watt LED bulb that can come up with light comparable to that of a 100-watt incandescent light.



GE has recently announced that it has come up with a new LED bulb able to create bright light equivalent to that of 100-watt incandescent. But what makes it even better is that it has been able to cram up all that new technology in a LED bulb that is also as big as an A19 incandescent. The new LED bulbs come with better cooling systems developed by Nuventix to make it more efficient. The new GE Energy Smart LED bulbs come with a 25,000-hour service life as well. The new LED bulbs are expected to be available by June of next year. No word has yet been provided on how much a LED bulb will cost.
