It may be a small investment of time, but in the long run, it is worth it to retrofit older lighting fixtures to accept long-lasting, energy-efficient LED lighting. If you have overhead lighting fixtures that use fluorescent tube-style lighting, you can upgrade them using easy-to-install converters. Using modern-day LED strip lamp lighting, while initially much more expensive, can still recoup about 20 to 40 percent in overall electricity savings in its lifetime. They also do not need to be replaced as often, lasting up to 20 years before the LED bulbs burn out.
