At least one local store chain has a own-brand LED bulb, where the name of the store is printed on the bulb, and they advertise a 10-year warranty.
I've gone in and returned probably a dozen such bulbs without any receipt, just saying "hey, these are your bulbs, you say 10 year warranty, this is broken and they only came to the market 5 years ago".
Of course this only works now in the early days. If the date of manufacture was printed along with the store name, it'd be problem solved forever.
- tialaramex 8y agoThe LED lamps I use in my bedroom are serial numbered. When one dies they can see when they sold it and authorise a free replacement if it qualifies. I thought the last one to die had qualified, but when I got as far as pulling out my records I realised the one I'd been thinking of was actually still in its box yet to be installed, so this one lasted almost double its warranted lifetime.
