kill-A-Watt strikes again

I noticed that my freezer light bulbs were failing at a high rate; plugged in the kill a watt opened the door -> closed -> repeat and there was no difference in draw. A quick peel back of my seal confirmed my suspicion, the lights were staying on 24*7 . 80 Watts of heat eliminated from inside my freezer. Anybody want to hazard a guess on savings? 80 watts of lights + 80 watts of cooling. . . . .
