Well, even those in our kitchen do not come up to full brilliance immediately, 
although they do within 15 minutes or so.

And the one we have as our outside front porch light sometimes takes at 
least that long to come up to full brilliance, especially in the winter.

But, so far at least, they have been very reliable and inexpensive.

They also last much longer than even the "double-life" incandescents we had 
to replace regularly before we switched to CFLs.

I have one LED bulb in the basement, just outside my hamshack, which has 
been left on for the past couple of months, mainly to check both reliability 
and RFI.

There has been zero RFI from it, and so far, it seems to be reliable.

Cost is too high at this point though.
