Nothing worse than being an early adoptor, and finding better and cheaper tech shortly after.

Frankly I love the warm yellow glow of my old incandescent lamps... But I do notice that with all the cabin lights on, they are the largest single draw on the boat... yup even higher than the fridge or radar.

Of course I can easily reduce that load by just using the lamps for the task at hand... and I do have two red/white florescent lamps that really fill the cabin with light... harsh light mind you, but at a much lower current draw.

I think Brian hit the nail on the head... if you can wait, the technology and price will both improve.
