The dollar tree store in my area has the same product (different brand on the box) for $1 each right now. The decade of lifespan is questionable, since the parts that run the LED emitter array are sensitive to power surges and spikes. I have had a few of both types (LED and CFL) go out during thunderstorms. The power savings vs light intensity is unquestionably the best feature. I like the LED bulbs better than CFL due to the fact that they light up instantly at full intensity. This is most obvious when it's cold.
