I've got over 50 Philips Hue Color bulbs running with no failures since 2016 (so, 7 yrs now) along with between 35-50 FEIT Electric LED bulbs (great for affordable >90 CRI) and only a few of the FEITs have failed over the years. Perhaps it's true that the quality of your electrical service matters; the power in Chicago virtually never goes out.
- housemusicfan 3y ago> I've got over 50 Philips Hue Color bulbs running with no failures since 2016 Those are $40 light bulbs. 99.999% of people do not have $2000 to spend on light bulbs, or laugh at the ludicrousness of such a thought, possibly both. This is not the metric by which you judge everyone else's experiences. It is luxury/entitlement at its finest. Most commodity LED bulbs are garbage.
- Doxin 3y agoIKEA sells <$10 bulbs that in my experience basically don't break at all either. Quite nice CRI too.
- Turing_Machine 3y agoWell, it's the boots problem all over again. A good pair of boots is expensive, but will last for many years. Cheap boots are more expensive in the long run, because you're lucky to get a year out of them. > 99.999% of people do not have $2000 to spend on light bulbs You don't have to replace them all at once. Just doing one at a time, starting with the one that's on the most, would work fine. I'm also doubtful that the average poor person has 50 light bulbs. If I were a renter, I think I'd take my good bulbs with me when I moved, replacing them with dollar store cheapies.
