Default Re: Australia housing bubble

Yeah utilities arent the cheapest, im not going to elaborate on that and open a can of worms. But technology has come leaps and bounds making things cheaper to be more energy efficient. For example a 35w downlight kit costs $6 wholesale, but an 8w led down light costs $8 wholesale. So the immediate cost is slightly more, but for the added life span of the led fitting youre looking at 5 or 6 replacement halogen dichroics over a few years and the extra power consumption, so cheaping out in the short term costs more in the long run. Granted a house with downlights has more then one, but that means the savings multiply. Its just being proactive not making yourself sound like a victim.
