GE unveiled Bright StikTM LED, a redesigned, entry point 60-watt replacement LED, accelerating consumers’ transition from CFL to LED lighting—according to GE industry estimates. With an LED 3-pack for under US $10 every day MSRP, Bright Stik is available at www.homedepot.com today and in-store at The Home Depot locations nationwide starting in mid-summer.

Philips, the global leader in lighting, has once again partnered with The Home Depot to set the standard for LED bulb affordability with the new Philips LED family of products. The Philips LED A19 product line will be introduced with a 60-watt LED equivalent bulb that costs just $4.97 without utility rebates, making it the most affordable 60-watt LED bulb on the market. The Philips LED bulb uses just 8.5 watts of power and as an added bonus for consumers, the bulb will be introduced at The Home Depot at the beginning of May in a two-for-one pack for the first 90 days, or while supplies last, and is available online now at www.homedepot.com.
