For me it's the Utilitech LEDs that suck most. Had one fail by glowing softly and another start to flicker.

Quote from: wide-lite 1000 on January 22, 2021, 11:29:35 PM I've noticed a lot of people complaining about having to replace EOL Feit LEDs ! I've using the Ecosmart LEDs from home depot and have had "0" problems with them . As as matter of fact , I have a pair of them mounted on my fence that have been running D2D flawlessly for 13 months and 1 in the light at the end of my driveway (also D2D) for over 2 years now . Sounds to me like we need to quit buying the Feit LEDs !! Quote from: wide-lite 1000 on January 22, 2021, 11:56:33 PM For a "store brand" they're actually decent quality ! Who are you.?  And what have you done with Tim.??

I've never had any problems, but then I've only usually brought one or two lamps at a time, not a suitcase full
