wow cheap.. arent they ?. But no mercury , or uv light.. and no EMF. I think most folks will adopt the swirly version en masse  though.me..? I will not touch them with a barge pole. For now I am buying incandescents  in bulk. Thanks for info..

You haven't seen the LED ones because they are still very expensive,
and they still don't put out much light. But the price has (and
will continue to) drop, and the light output should increase. So
you should only need to stock up on incandescents until LED lights
become more practical... and we figure out which brands are the good
ones!

The LED lights are not "swirly"... here are some examples of what
they currently look like:
