Mid-Hudson News accepts Letters to the Editor

Dear Editor,

LED lights are just another scam.

They are supposed to last 50,000 hours and be more cost-effective.  Well, they don’t and aren’t.  In addition to problems with those expensive LED street lights, look at how many red and green traffic lights are failing.  It starts with one or two LEDs out then in a few weeks more LEDs out.  They do not last as long as stated or promised.

Also, if an led goes out on your vehicle, you know the pretty LED outlines on your headlights and tail lights… you cannot replace the LED failing you need to replace the entire headlight or tail light assembly.  They cost hundreds of dollars.  Then through the infinite wisdom (or stupidity) our illustrious government has made long lasting and very cost effective (cheap) incandescent light bulbs illegal!  Go figure.
