   Light-emitting diodes might not offer one hundred year life, and I have   
   replaced some of the cheaper LED-based light bulbs that I bought because   
   they had gotten a lot dimmer than they were when I installed them, but   
   most of them do last a lot longer than incandescent-filament based lamps   
   they replaced.
