    L.E.D. Lighting(bulbs)

    I was at our local Sam's Club this morning and came across a sweet deal on L.E.D. bulbs.
    These bulbs were regularly priced at $29.95 each.
    They are clearing them out at $3.91 Needless to say I bought a large number of them. 7 watts + long life + great price = nice lighting for my snakes.
    The housing around the bulb is aluminum and they appear to be very well made.

    I just got off the phone with Sam's Club. They're going to hold 10 more of them back for me. Once they're gone I'll never get this kind of price again. Time to stock up.

    These seem to produce some good heat. I think that is why the head is made of aluminum.
    I'm really impressed with the amount of light they put out.
    Much more than I thought they would.

    Yeah, LEDs have come a long way. Last time I tried that type of LED bulb, the output was pathetically low (and they broke after just a couple of days).
