LED bulbs, even though cheaper in the long term, used to habe high enough shelf prices enough that most houdeholds wouldn’t have switched without a government push. Incandescents are literally banned now for most uses, while the economies of scale have helped drive LED prices down.
It costs 8x more to power an incandescent lamp than an equivalent LED lamp, the LED lamps pay for themselves very quickly.
