This isn't a direct answer, but the original lasted maybe 7 or 8 years, being on maybe 4-5 hours a day. Just got replacement last month; so far, so good gene devita

Those bulbs last at least a year or two. You should get in touch with Verilux. You may have a faulty bulb.

I bought this lamp over 10 years ago, & this is the first time I had to replace the bulb. Unknown how long the newer bulb will last.

I bought this bulb in Oct 2014 and it's not working on Jun 11 2015...not nearly long enough!

Our bulb that came with our lamp lasted at least 5 years, we just replaced it a couple of months ago.

My lamp has lasted for 9 years. It is a large stand alone lamp and it also has an attachment to attach to a desk or table. My lamp was a free gift from Oreck with the purchase of an upright vacuum.

They have lasted me a couple of years as long as the grandchildren don't knock the lamp over

I really don't know. I had bought it for my mother in law. From what she has told me, they last a good while.

Our original bulb lasted almost 6 years and my husband uses the lamp every evening. We just bought another new lamp and hope for the same life span. We love these lamps!

I have heard the bulb will last about 2 years on the average before it has to be replaced. There is also a silver probe that must be replaced when it goes bad. A light will turn on when you have to replace that. I think that may be about 2 years as well. Of course, it depends if you are doing 3 loads per day or 1 load per week.

I am not sure if they have a warranty. I will imagine so if there is something wrong when they arrive. I have purchased a few and have not have any problems with them. They could last over a year, depending on the viewers habits, of course. Initially, these bulb were kind of expensive but now I think they are fairly priced. I keep an extra one as a spare because sometimes they blow without warning (just like any bulb).

The first one I put in lasted two weeks, the second one has lasted 5 months now. These are not factory replacement bulbs. Spend the extra money and get the Phillips replacement bulb these should last at least 2 years.

I've had mine about 2 years so far still original bulb. I sue it almost daily anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours

I have had them for about 4 months with no issues. They are mechanical switches so I am an guessing they will last a while since they did not fail immediately. I have them controlling lamps.

According to the label on the lamp, its life span is 40,000 hrs, that gives you about 4.5 years if you leave it on 24/7.So...no, you don't need to replace the bulb, you just have to get a new lamp after 40k hrs.

Not sure but I do know the replacement lamp is short lived and expensive..I returned my lamp because I saw a lot of future expenses in bulbs....

The bulb is NOT replaceable. I have had these for about a year without any issues.

They are a sealed unit. you cannot replace a bulb they have 104 leds and are a half inch thick. Somewhere I read they are supposed to last 30,000 hours. May be able to get more info from led wholesalers.

Get in touch with GProducts, the company that actually sold you the bulb. Look in your order history in Amazon.com. You will see the choice on how to get in touch with them regarding any problems with the bulb. The bulb is warranteed for one year but should have lasted about three years. I bought mine in octover. I hope I do not have the trouble you are having.

that's a good question - I don't know the answer but Contour says the life of the bulb is around 20 years but even then it has a lifetime warranty - I think the bulb will out last me :o} - I see LED light bulbs rated at 10,000 to 100,000 hours -- I really like mine and seems very well engineered

If these led bulbs are like other led bulbs they should last somewhere between 20,000 - 50,000 hours

I installed the bulb about 3 months ago in the hallway of my apartment building. I have subsequently moved so I'm not sure if it is still working. Sorry!

Mine has lasted six months so far. I really doubt that you can replace the bulbs, you would have to get the right leds and then you would have to solder them onto the board.

I also bought two about two years ago. I think if any of the bulbs went out I would call the manufacturer - technical support to see if they are replaceable. Only they would know.
