4 Watt LED with 50 Watt equivalent light output 400 Lumens

Return on Investment:

5 watt x 6 hours per day usage x 365 days = 10.95 kWh.

At 12 cents per kWh it will cost $1.32 a year to operate.

Subtract that from the $10.50 cost to run a 40 watt bulb saves you $9 per yr.

I have 16 bulbs so I will save $144 per year.

The current cost for 16 bulbs is ~$416 so I would get 100% ROI in 2.8 years.
