LED light bulbs are known to be the type of light that people have in their homes right now. It seems that more people prefer this now because this is brighter as compared to incandescent lights. Take note that the wattage of LED and incandescent may be the same, but LED lights will be brighter. This explains why it will not be common to see LED bulbs that come with high wattage as they will already be too bright.

Incandescent is also known to consume a lot more energy as compared to LED. The number of hours that they will last can also be different. LED bulbs are known to last for 10,000 hours, while incandescent bulbs will only last for about a thousand hours.
