This is a YouTube video titled "Why are these lights banned in America?" containing a conversation between two speakers discussing the legality and characteristics of incandescent and Edison light bulbs in the US, recorded around November 30, 2024. The discussion focuses on the ban of incandescent bulbs and the differences between traditional and LED Edison bulbs.
They made incandescent bulbs illegal in the US Last year.
Sorry, what?
Oh, yeah. So you used to be able to buy incandescent bulbs because your body likes them. So last year, they put a fine in place of about $440 per bulb if a company sold a bulb. So I bought a few thousand incandescent bulbs right before they became illegal. So my house has amazing lighting, and when I run out of those.
What are Edison bulbs?
Edison bulbs are led. They're just much better than the big bright ones.
So Edison incandescent are illegal.
If they're incandescent Edison bulbs, then you can still get them.
I got the incandescent one. I was like, there were spotlights out there. I was like, I'm not having any of this.
Those are precious. Most of the Edison bulbs you buy today have an LED filament.
Yeah, I saw those. As long as they're not illegal.
