Wait, no.
The place you’re wrong is where you’re acting like these lamps aren’t still used.
You can buy them at ilea for like 10 bucks.
I have 3 of this style and have incandescent style led bulbs in them. They work fantastic.
The directional panel leds you’ll see in modern LED fixtures are not a good fit for these, but others are.
Essential oils are a thing, people will buy anything, it doesn’t mean it’s practicable or there’s not far better options.
Sounds more like justification, the originals were meant to use one on a room, you say you have 3? Maybe get a single better light next time?
I own a house, I have multiple rooms.
If you choose to stop and have a more open mindset you’ll see you’re actually being downvoted for quite good reason.
Now I realize it’s because you’re being argumentative and refusing to try to see perspective you don’t understand.
Oh no, a bunch of people disagree with me… and I’m being downvoted… oh well… why do you think any of that matters?
These lights are a terrible design, and they are not a good design for LED, even though you absolutely can still use them. Other people would rather better spend the money on better lighting. Why is this so hard to believe?
Why do I need to change my opinion? Not every discussion is about making the other side agree with you, I’m providing discourse so we can all learn something, but if your intention here is to make me see your side… nah.
Its funny you say I’m refusing to accept others perspective, and yet in previous comments I address their uses and downsides. So no…? I’m more defending my valid opinions against a bunch of people just shouting there’s. How are you any different than me currently? I’m an ass for defending myself…? Okay.
Because we own lamps and have experience that extends beyond your narrow mindset.
Take care dude, I don’t care in the slightest about your opinion anymore.
And people argue for essential oils as well. They are absolutely allowed that opinion. That doesn’t mean there isn’t better and other options and we’ve already discussed.
Never cared about yours to begin with as well, so… what’s your point here?
But it’s good to know I’m an ass for explaining and defending my opinion!
I understand it's objectively less efficient. But living space preferences aren't only about objective efficiency.
