LEDs and electricity savings

Yes, having several years of physics, I understand evaporative cooling. I still don't know what you're talking about. Probably best if we leave it at that

As always, I might have not been able to clear up my point I meant that LED plays a very important role in terms of reducing heat by saying "Save your reef during the summer" and you wrote you prefer LEDs because of evaporation which also falls in the heat issue. That was my point. Man I need to get better at how I write

Haha. I was never the biggest LED fan nor did I ever say that leds are crappy. Infact, given the chance and financial possibility, I would move to LEDs because of all the options they give. And my point was/is/will never be that "leds are crappy" (other than some fixtures which are really really crappy!). My points always is that LED cannot save you money; atleast for now It just lowers electricity bill (given that you are not replacing the saving with something else ), helps with issues related to heat and gives you more options.
