You might want to check your home for electrical issues (specifically spikes). I've yet to have a single LED light bulb die ever, some have already exceeded their supposed 10 year lifespan.
And that's not one brand. I have GE bulbs, Philips (Hue and not), and random brands from Amazon.
- 0xff00ffee 7y agoSame here. I put 2700K philips all over my house 5 years ago and I haven't had any issues, but I have no idea of the quality of the power coming into my house from my provider. (Anyone know how good Austin Energy's electricity on the west side is?)

- amiantos 7y agoGotta check your attitude, maybe it's disrupting the DeKalbs. (Sorry for the Heinlein reference, it was too tempting.)
- bcrosby95 7y agoWere they selling cheap LED bulbs over 10 years ago? By my recollection they were all expensive back then. It seems plausible yours were expensive and higher quality than all the cheap ones everyone is buying nowadays. Speaking for myself, I've bought a variety of brands over the years. Some brands seem to die after a year or so. Others are still going fine after 3-5 years.
