Same here, using Feit bulbs from Costco, and they last about 1 year. > I would will to spend a bit more if I could be confident that I was going to get a bulb that actually lasted the lifespan of the LEDs. That's why Costco is great - I save the box, and when I have a full set of burned out ones I just return them and buy a new set.
