Why are LED lights more expensive than incandescent bulbs?

LED lights are electronic devices, much like a computer or an iPad. Even in the past 7 years, LED light prices have dropped by as much as 85%. While they may be initially more expensive than an incandescent bulb, this cost is more than offset in energy and maintenance savings.

They are more expensive because you will save money on them in the long term, and therefore many people are ready to pay a high initial price for such economical lamps, and sellers think why not to get more money in such case.

Energy-saving lamps give a brighter light, but they need up to 40 seconds of warm-up to fully work. This is acceptable when used in living rooms, but inconvenient in places where you stay for a short time, such as in corridors and on basement stairs.
