> Get a crew out there and figure it out. I mean, to be fair, the city maintenance crews don't generally run tear-down youtube channels with appropriate equipment to take a close look at a failing semiconductor-based light assembly. But the general point is correct. What could be done is connect with some of those crews' offices, understand what warranties are provided with the municipal purchase of those bulbs, and how much comes out of the infrastructure budget to do an early replacement of these bulbs. Hopefully these bulbs weren't purchased from a RANDOMSYLLABLE amazon china dropshipper who disappeared after 3 months. But yes, that requires talking to municipal governments, and there's not enough click revenue to support that level of journalism anymore. Maybe a youtuber who runs a tear-down channel can do that.
