This is my second light which has lasted one season. Whats the deal?

It's just the way it was made. Multi thousands at a time. And priced that low, the lack of quality control. Mine have lasted for 3 years now but I do have five that lasted from a month to five months. But at 20 bucks you can't beat them.

I haven't used this light much as I have 3 different lights and this is a backup, but I haven't had any issues with it in the 4 times I have used it.

Hey there, ive purchased a cheap one and this one and I believe it may be another issue shortening the life of these bulbs... Maybe the fan ? Maybe excess dirt? Both of mine only lasted about 10 months (max) also.

Yes I had the same problem we just purchased another one. They don't seem to last through more than one season.

Make sure it is the exact same light. I have another light that looks just like this one but is a different model and has a weak beam. The light must be an "Extreme Bright" Ultra Bright Zoomable LED Bicycle Light. If you can get it for $4 with the correct holder you are doing great. I don't know how the warranty works? I never worry about warranties. If it is a quality product a warranty is a non issue. Hope this helps.

Nah, I'm front ct and have had my light out at night in the single digits and teens and had no problem. Just keep it in my jacket pocket until I need it and pull it out and use it for about 30 min or so each time and it worked np. Probably used it in these Temps about half a dozen times this winter.

The light could go up to to a hundred thousand hour. We also have a one year warranty.

I had the same problem. I believe that when you have a multiple bulb fixture you are out of luck. Once one bulb is bright it tells the other bulb sensors that the sun is out so they dim or do not light as they are supposed to when this amount of available light..

I also experienced a problem with this light. I had two and both melted. It is a very pretty light but not worth what might happen. Check lamps plus they have a similar model.

Hmmmmm, my lights are still ok, possibly a warranty issue... possibly a defective unit or bulbs...?

I just lost one of these in a 2-bulb fully enclosed fixture. The other Cree bulb is still going. I've had them in that light since April 2013. It is a light that we tend to leave on ALOT.

Mine is almost 4 years old, we noticed today while fixing something else that 1 light is out on each of the outers, plus 2 in the middle. However, it's still bright enough for us so we're going to put it back up and replace it when too many have burned out.

My guess is you got a defective one. They are fairly inexpensive to begin with, so it wouldn't be a long shot if you ended up getting one that was malfunctioning the way you are describing. My advice is to just send it back to Amazon so they can replace it with another one. I know it's an inconvenience, but in the end, you'll be glad you did. It's a great light, especially when it works the way it's supposed to.

Mine has been installed for over a year with no problems. It is a quality unit. Only issue I've had is the small bolts that allow you to tilt the light are tight but over time vibration will tilt the light. Looking at buying a second light same as the first. I recommend this light bar.

I'd send the bad one back. It should last longer. The LED part is probably good, the circuitry sometimes fails. Can't remember the warranty, thought it was a year.

You should contact the company directly. I understand from past reviews that they have good customer service. I have had problems with my light randomly going off!

Hi! I bought 2 units in November last year and they are working like a charm. The light in the unit is great.

The same thing happens to me but afther six months and after a heavy rain, I take it out and becomes a great brick or paperweight,I try to desasembly an fix but there's no solution at least you become ant-man and fix it, they said "it's waterproof" and "spot lights" but this light is more like Flood and definitely not weather resistant..
