A LED party sounds awesome! It'd be neat to test my collection of bulbs empirically.
I once bought several LED bulbs that utilized panels of perhaps 100 diodes, but several of them failed prematurely--soldering, circuitry?
I prefer the light engine technology of high-power LEDs; they are brighter, much more durable, and the warranties are generally longer-term. 5-7.5 watt LED bulbs can now compete with 40-60 watt incandescents.
