Renting a room in an old house. The landlady is one of the rare good ones and cooks for me somtimes so I'm trying to be handy where I can.
This light in my office died, and a few others in the house are in dire need of replacing. Rusted and covered in decades of caked on dust, probably hazardous.
The next tenant after you might not be so handy. It would be easier for the average person just to change a bulb if they needed to. I'd go with the fixture that uses replaceable LED bulbs.
Agreed. The fixtures with non-replaceable lights are a giant headache waiting to happen down the road. Always go with the replaceable bulb fixtures.
Edit: Not to mention the next person may not like the specific LED in that fixture and may want a brighter or dimmer one. With a replaceable bulb this is a 30s swap; with a non-replaceable bulb it is an entire project that the person may even need to hire a guy to do for them (read: expensive).
