That is definitely the way the industry is headed.
At my job, we make generator powered light towers and we are seeing a demand for LED lighting. We are testing a few different types/manufacturers. The issue, for us, is that so far they don't provide as much light as our current type of lights and they cost A LOT more. But the technology is improving rapidly.
I'm definitely for whatever technology brings my star-filled nights back. It's gotten remarkably worse over the last five years and as the city of Houston grows it's only going to get worse.
Needless to say the Wife and I will be moving within the next 10 years to somewhere deep in uninhibited lands despite slow internets because being able to view the heavens nightly matters to us.
Come up to Maine, we got plenty of starry skies, no jobs, but hey stars! http://www.flickr.com/photos/75692888@N02/11558815735/ nightsky by runnah555, on Flickr
Second, since when is being introverted a symptom of a neurological disorder? Dick.
my town switched over a while ago... some wierd flickering effects at twilight. (i'm assuming because the automatic light sensor is not getting enough or too little light to fully turn the light on or off)
That's the thing....it will take years, probably decades before these pay for themselves. Sure, they use less power, but they are still A LOT more expensive and then there is the cost to remove the old ones and install new ones.and use way less power, so the city could funnel more money into repairing my road but will instead spend money on sucking up to the tavern league.
