I thought led lights lasted over 20 years. Why do these last way less

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.

These aren't lightbulbs. It's a system that might have integrity issues in overall construction.

I was disappointed with the life expectancy of the LED Drivers. I have replaced two already. They are available at LED Supply online for about $16.00 each.

Yes they can, BUT, mine lasted about 3 months and then died. I replaced them with 40w (watt) equivalent LED bulbs which use 7.5 watts to produce the same amount of lumens (light) as a 40w incandescent bulb. LED bulbs should last around 20 years or 100,000 hours or more. Fluorescent lights are on their way out. The other thing about LED bulbs is that they are smaller and less bulky than CFL bulbs and they don't change color with age.LED bulbs also contain no mercury and require no special disposal.

With proper use (i.e. charging during the day and operating during the night), the batteries should last longer than 2 years. Like any rechargeable battery, over time the charge may not last as long as with say a mobile phone, but the lights are on periodically so I have not noticed any degradation over the 2.5 years I have had 4 of my lights installed. Finally, the bulbs are actually 60 LEDs which are attached to a circuit board and cannot or do not need to be changed. The operating life of the LEDs are about 20,000 hours far exceeding the life of the light.

Anywhere from 25,000 to 50,000 hrs. LED lights typically don't burn out, they fade out.

Another spot on Amazon site specifies these are rated to last 70+ hours. Just last week I got a Restoration Hardware catalog and saw LED candles - the cheapest was $19/EA but they specify the candles last as long as 1,000 hours. Had there been better information at Amazon site at the time of purchase I would of not bought these HOWEVER I do have a supply of Eneloop SANYO rechargeable batteries here at the house so will just bite it. Technology has made great leaps in LED lighting in the last couple of years there is much better alternatives.

LEDs should last longer than one year. Migh check for an internal bad connection.

LEDs last a long time and the possibility of a defect should show up before the warranty expires. It'll probably last 30 years and at that time there will most likely be an even better LED or other technology to replace it with.

They lasted a few months, but now a lot of them are burnt out. Although to be fair the other brands did the same thing, and had about the same life in my under cabinet lights. I am starting to wonder if something is wrong with the light fixture itself maybe.

These are Led's so these should last more than a halogen bulb. I say 5+ years maybe more!

No, unless you take the unit apart and conduct some DIY soldering and find a matching LED. However, LEDs have a general life expectancy of 50,000 hrs. If you use your lights for 10 hours a day, it should last 13.7 yrs. Of course it can lost longer.

They were good for awhile LEDs burnt out in less than a year. Do yourself a favor and get laser lights.

If that light was left on for 5 hours per day , every day , it would last 27 years. I think it would be ok to buy a new one then. Now if you only used it 5 days per week it would last even longer of course. That is the benefit if LEDs - they should outlast the fixtures practical use. With that said, Looking at the light I'm not sure how you would change the light strip.

They are LED so they should lasts for around 50,000 hours on. I have had them for 3 years. I have 12 lighs throughout my home. I have had 1 go bad in that time. The whole thing (light and speaker) went bad.

These are LED lights and I do not believe they are replaceable. Should last thousands of hours.

Mine only lasted 1 year. The stock lights lasted for 10. They were brighter but only 1 year? I was not impressed

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
