Light up your life!

20 lightbulbs at 100W each would consume 2kw, or about 20p an hour.

24hrs x 20p x 365 days = £175

So to consume £700 a year you'd need 80 lightbulbs in your house switched on 24/7. Come on. Really? 80 of these lightbulbs would cost £1,758.

80 of the standard energy saver bulbs would cost in the region of £30 and cost £140 a year to run, compared with the £35 for the 4.5W LED bulb.

A quick calculation shows it would take 17 years to break even on the cost between LED lamps and standard energy savers.

WTF pwned! :)

whoever your product manager is got taken in badly with the supplier of these bulbs marketing drivel......i think you should sack him/her tbh
 
Average home, £700 quid saving! Big claims and looks like from the responses OCuk have been totally pwned :) Stick to selling graphics cards and I will stick to 50p energy saving bulbs..
