Is the LED replaceable, or is the unit meant to be disposable after 30,000 hours of use?

Not user replaceable - or practical: 30k hours = over 10years @8hours a day 7 Days a week

I don't own this particular projector, but it is DLP LED technology, not a standard lamp. DLP LED technology is solid state and low heat, and will last for tens of thousands of hours. I highly doubt you can even change the "lamp" at all. This projector will become obsolete long before the lamp burns out. At a life expectancy of 30,000 hours, you could leave this projector on for 3-1/2 years. If you use it occasionally, you will never have to replace the imager.

Theoretically, the life span of led light bulb is over 30,000h, so please don't worry about this issue. No way to replace the light bulbs. Thanks - saicoo

The selling company deems that the LEDs are not replaceable at the user level. Contact Lithonia for warranty.

It uses an LED lamp, so it should last upwards of 50,000 hours. You probably won't ever have to replace it; at 4 hours of use every day it will last you over 30 years.

LED bulbs are typically soldered in place instead of socketed with a typical lifetime of about 100,000 hours. That translates to 20-years worth of night time only service. It is the rare LED bulb that would fail much sooner than that. I deal with them in all kinds of ways as a broadcast engineer.

Well it uses LED bulbs, Two of them. I really don't know if you can replace them, there may be a way to get into the housing but I would not buy any right now. Even if you left the light on for 24 hours a day you would get at least 10 years out of them, and with most normal use of a LED bulb it is more like 30 years. So my suggestion would be to hold off.

It's based on 3/hrs of day of use, which is 1,095 hours/year, or about 22.83 years. As with any product, using it more or less frequently will extend/reduce the life. In my own case, I've used three of these for more than 3 hours a day for 2.5 years or so, and have not had any issues so far. Also, the lifetime quoted assumes you follow the directions (i.e., don't install this in a *fully* enclosed fixture as the heat buildup will rapidly degrade the LED).

There are 12 equally spaced LED bulbs or chips or whatever they are. I don't think they are replacable, but I don't think it matters. LED bulbs last tens of thousands of hours. If you only use it a couple of hours a day, this lamp will outlast all of us.

The LED bulb is claimed to have 20,000 hours life span. I have used for two years and it still works fine. There is bulb sold on Ebay and 12 are sold, so I guess some one did need to replace them.

It is an LED light with no replacement. LED blubs are supposed to last for 10+ years. But we lost one due to a power surge.

The LED lights cannot be replaced, and should never need to be replaced. LEDs have a life over 30,000 hours, which means they will never need to be replaced, even after 10 years of usage. They are solid state technology that will not lose brightness over time.Additionally, 25% of the LEDs are actually Infrared (IR) so they will appear "off" to the human eye, when in fact they are working.

No. It mentions on the package that the LED never needs to be replaced. Usually, LED lifetimes are rated in thousand of hours of operation. LEDs are not like light bulbs where they burn out or fail because the bulb got bumped and the filament broke.

The only thing that is consumer replaceable is the photocontroller (Intermatic K4521 or home depot equivalent) that is a plug and play. The LED is rated for 50,000 hours which they equate to 13 years. I bought both controllers. After six months no LED or photocontroller failures.

I personally habe no problem with mine so far.usually, Leds do last over 10 years but cheap components makes problems especially when it's connected without ground wire.

It is guaranteed to work for 3 years at above normal use (9 hours a day for three years) with no change in lights or battery. It should last longer than that but to answer your question no, the lights are not replaceable; they and the battery are sealed inside the unit. If you have a light go bad in three years you can follow the instructions you get by email directly from me or our CFO, Terry Carter. We will honor the 3 year Guarantee for any normal use problems ("not normal" is Throwing it at the wall, dropping it from high places, or running over it with your car, etc. :) Thanks for your question, I hope this helps!

I have had mine running for around a year almost constantly. LED's are rated for anywhere between 2,000 and 20,000 hours. So to answer your question, a long time!
