We have a bridge with smart LED lights on in here in Montréal. They were put in 2017 with a promise that they will remain until 2027.
Now I wonder if they will actually last.

- the_pwner224 4y agoThere's absolutely no reason they won't last if properly engineered. We have a very good understanding of how and why LEDs fail over time. If the lights need to last 10 years, then the mechanical & electrical engineers can make a design that will last 10 years. That's not hard to do. The reason many LEDs, especially consumer LEDs, fail early is due to excessive cost cutting.
