You can, I know I have gone nuts over bulbs and lighting. Far as the compact Fluorescent bulbs, they were a dramatic improvement over the old tungsten bulbs that have changed little since about 1900. Also, the amount of light they put out drops by half before the bulb fails to light. Typical of all electronic stuff, LED bulbs that are superior have dropped dramatically in price. As to failures of LED bulbs in a year or so, I've changed most every bulb in my home to LED bulbs. Not a scientific study but my opinion is to buy only branded LED bulbs. The real cheap ones in plain unbranded boxes have a high failure rate. Published warranties for 5-10-20 years? The companies are not stupid. Who keeps track of when you bought the bulb, saved the paperwork and the cost ofr you to send it back to china is more than you paid for the bulb |

Any bulb works. Easy to change sensor in lamppost that you can get at Ace, Home Depot or Lowes. If don't want to do yourself, a handyman can do it in about 10-15 minutes, so shouldn't cost you much unless you use the electrician that advertises in our paper.
