If you think your LED bulbs last, and are efficient, then
you have heard of "Dubai Bulbs"

Interesting, but that video is three years old and Philips has since
introduced an "ultra-efficient" line that pushes the claimed life
from 15,000 to 50,000 hours and about doubles the efficiency.
I have no idea if there is a Dubai version of those.

FWIW, when I purged the incandescents and some of the compact
fluorescents at home, I just bought cheap LED bulbs from the Aldi
middle aisle.  Only for types where I needed to order a replacement
have I started taking a closer look at brand-name products.
