[QUOTE="GeorgeK, post: 5477580, member: 106748"] Out of 4 in the workshop there is one left working after a year, halogen floodlight bulbs would have lasted longer. Problem with leds the 200,000 hour 'lifetime' (or whatever) is purely hypothetical. In practice the internal power supply fails, they overheat from poor heat dissipation or one of the multiple chips is faulty and overloads the rest. There's a lot to go wrong compared with a bit of metal that gets hot. You have to get high quality branded units and that's expensive and the odd one will still fail [/QUOTE]
