If you shop around Home Depot, or Warehouse clubs, you might notice the existence of LED lights on some aisle. Although they are expensive in price compared to those CFL lights, they issue less heat, and they save a lot of energy used from your bills. From some readings, the cost of your light bulbs wasn't the issue. It is how much you going to spend for your electric bill that accounts the most. So, will you believe eventually, we will switch to LED as our alternative, because we are going for "Green", as the promotion says.

personally i've got solar led lights that can be recharged via the sun or just from other lights being on in the house. i also have plug in led lights. what i can say about led lights(at least the ones i have and have heard about from other owners)i have is the amount of light they put out isn't much at all. i darken a room and just have my led light(s) on only and they just light up a small amount of space. they don't brighten a whole room like some might think. the led lights 95% reduction of power when compared to other lights trade off basicly is it doesn't hardly light a room up at all.

That is good view on LED lights. So, base on your opinion, what LED lights should be used most? I meant basicly not used to light up the whole room, but what used it commercially?

Yes, I think so. Compared to those CFL lights LED lights have many advantages such as energy saving and less heat emitting. I believe LED lights will replace most CFL lights in the coming future and the price of LED lights will go down .

European already replaced all the CFL lights with LED, and as American continent, we just have to follow suit, and do our thing to save money and go green as the theme said.
