LED bulbs are said to last between 30,000 and 50,000 hours. Incandescent has about a 2,000 hour life span and approximately 8,000 for a "CFL" type.
Hope this helps everyone on making a decision.

∙ 8y agoIncandescent lamps are usually rated for 2000 hours. This life length is shortened by excessive switching, high source voltage and vibration. Higher voltage will shorten the life of the lamp. It is the heating and cooling of the filament that weakens the element. Norman lamps have three filament supports where vibration is not a factor. Rough service lamps get a longer life because the the five filament supports.

Tungsten, as it burns long and brightly.
Which bulb lasts longer an incandescent light bulb or a compact fluorescent light bulb?
A regular incandescent bulb uses a lot more energy than a compact fluorescent to produce the same amount of light. Most energy used by an incandescent bulb is wasted as heat which does not give off visible light. Incandescent bulbs are cheaper to buy, but they have shorter lifetimes than other alternatives.
Do incandescent light bulbs freeze?
no
