The glass you broke on halogen is not for aesthetics only. Halogen bulbs have a tiny possibility of violently exploding. That's why every halogen lightbulb has double glass. In case of floodlights and car lamps, the second glass is part of the lamp. Spotlights, 'power saving' lightbulbs, etc. are double glassed for more than aesthetics.

I have several CFL lights that come on at full brightness. Only when I got some more did I discover what everyone was talking about with the warm up time. They must be using something that costs more than mercury. Otherwise why would any maker still make ones that are slow.

18 years ago I replaced all the incandescent bulbs in the house I had just moved into with CFLs. After *nearly two decades* they're finally starting to wear out. Safe to say I got my money's worth out of them, and saved a boatload on my power bill. They served their purpose, but about 1/3 of my house now uses LEDs and that number will grow as the CFLs gradually fail. I swapped my truck's headlights for LEDs too and love them. I will say that I haven't found a "warm" LED that comes anywhere close to the color temperature of an incandescent or CFL. Admittedly I haven't bought a bunch of them to compare, but both brands I have tried skewed more brown than orange/yellow.
incandescent or halogen have their uses still for some applications , in some cases necessary such as oven lights, also very useful as current limiters in resurrecting old radios, tvs, etc.
I have bought a halogen lamp especially for testing astronomical filters. Together with a very inexpensive (7.90 €) hand spectroscope, the spectral transmission ranges can be easily estimated. Halogen is hotter than other incandescent lighting, giving more intensity at shorter wavelengths.

There is no reason to dislike Incandescent bulbs in Canada. The color looks good. It is energy efficient in winter which basically lasts 8 months. Most of the power is consumed by the water heater and refrigerator and the heating elements of the house. In comparison to heating a house, the power consumption of a Incandescent bulb is nothing.
@@louistournas120 But if you were running off a battery pack, you would want efficiency, and incandescent is the least efficient you can get. You can get an LED bulb that creates the equivalent light for 1/6 the energy cost. If you are generating your own energy, this is significant.
@@ColinFox if you take apart an led bulb, there is a mini circuit board housed inside. resistors, capacitors, inductors which could be considered hazardous waste.
I agree that LED lights are 50x better than incandescents, however I personally put incandescents at 1,000,000x better than CFL. Instantaneous on with the flip of a switch. Flicker free. Better color spectrum. No UV light. No toxicwaste. The only advantage of cfl was slightly more luminosity per watt.
Yes the incandescent are flicker free. better color.no uv.no toxic waste. Plus the energy wasted in the incandescents which is not turned in to light is the most valuable about the incandescents, this energy is near infrared which is very essential to us ,it pentetrate deep and charges the mitochondria which start repairing all our organs , we used to take this energy from the sun especially in the morning and evening when uv index is low but now due to our indoor lifestyle we are very defcient in it

Great video, thank you for this comparison. LED is indeed the lamp of the future. However... power supplies in LEDs differ a lot. That's why some of them are dimmable and others not. What you forgot in my opinion is the power-factor. Especially in LED-land there are a lot with a very bad PF, even way below 0.5. The simple capacitive droppers are the worst. This becomes a waste in countries where people and especially factories are starting to pay for VA instead of Watts (thanks to smart meters).
honestly, you're doing an amazing job at telling people how they are wrong. honestly, the required spectrum (and frequency) of a light source _will_ determine the type of source being used. you just need a desktop lamp to read some papers? use LED. need to do stuff in a workshop with rotating machinery (more or less in sync with the network frequency)? use incandescent or LED or a combination of all these ; even FLs on all three phases will be confusing. Need to do some painting or work with tiny electronic components? Then you need a smooth, well-distributed spectrum. Need some lighting in a bathroom, that also needs some IR so it feels warm? Then you can either chose LEDs and add some IR heating to complement them, or instead just use standard filament or halogen bulbs, as these might just radiate the right amount of heat and light to suit your use. There is no "right light source" for any use, it really depends on the use and in what conditions things are being used. Making things such as incandescent lights unlawful will not save the world ; people need to be taught to use the correct device for the intended purpose.
I have LED lighting in my workshop (rather old ones) and in the last few years I thought I was going blue/green color blind because I could not distinguish the blue from the green bands on resistors. A few days ago I figured out that the problem was the LED lighting I was using . I happen to have an old incandescent lamp on my bench so when I have a problem reading a resistor I use it.
It definitely depends on the LED lights. There is now a CRI rating used to describe how well the LEDs approximate a black body spectrum like you get with sun or incandescent. Old LEDs score quite poorly on these tests. Newer LEDs that try to have a good spectrum (like the Philips and IKEA versions Mehdi tested) will list their CRI as part of their specifications. 100 would be perfect. 80 is a common baseline that looks pretty good. You can get them well over 90 for places where it's important like photography. So it might be worth investing in some new LED bulbs.
The Philips EyeComfort bulbs are the best LEDs that I've come across. They pass strict criteria for flicker, photobiological safety (blue wavelength hazard), UV, IR, glare, and other metrics. They have a CRI of 90. This is not just marketing mumbo-jumbo -- I do notice a difference! Some of them also have a "warm dim" effect, which transitions the bulb to an amber glow as you dim it, just like the old incandescents used to do! (To my knowledge so far, Philips is the only company offering bulbs with this neat feature.) And some of these bulbs have a "classic glass" construction, instead of the typical plastic. The best of both worlds! Worth a couple extra dollars in my opinion. The only incandescent bulbs left in my house now are the ones in the crawlspace and shed that rarely get turned on and were last changed over 25 years ago.
I've tried every led light avaliable at home and all of them feel "wrong". I just don't like them. I use normal and halogen bulbs at home and don't mind paying a bit more for electricity so the lights don't make me feel bad.
In both situations, the established/existing light companies fought tooth and nail to hold back the new technology. And people are impressionable/bribable. Sometimes capitalism holds back progress when inefficient, short-term Greed overshadows data-driven Foresight. Don't get me started on the USA healthcare system and the fossil fuel industry...
They had valid reason to at the time, this isn't an argument, when technology is premature it is premature. I know its fun to imagine they were just being stubborn but early incandescent were not like the modern kind, and the electrocution risks during early electrification were no joke at all, the "boom" was real. While 60 watt equivalents are decent now with LED, 100 watts are still fast burn out junk, and neither have economical 100 cri equivalents yet in fact no where near 100 for the sale priced junk. The people who complain about people not using leds are the same ones who go on plane trips to prove how worldly they are, a single trip is likely dwarfs the ecological costs of not replacing every bulb with led, and that's without looking at the hidden ecological costs enabled by these things being made in china..
you just explained to me exactly why I hated fluorescent lights, the light always looked wrong and hollow to me... for years I stuck with incandescent because it just looked real. I swapped to LED, and found that some LED lights irritated me due to the pulsing nature of their light, I used a 1k fps camera to catch it, but the light wasn't steady on but rather ran at around 60hz (coincidence maybe?) My favorites are the ones I constructed myself on DC circuits to avoid the flicker factor that some LED bulbs once had
Still, CFLs aren't THAT bad. Although they do have mercury in them, pure elemental mercury (which is what is in the tube) is the LEAST dangerous form mercury can be in. So a break isn't a huge deal.

As an electrician I've spent a lot of time with color temperatures for lighting. 2700K is great for bedrooms when you want to sleep. 3000K is best for use in your house in areas you want light like kitchens and living rooms, hallways. 4000k is a great workshop light or garages and sheds. Color rendition is also an important consideration if you're doing beauty work like makeup.
Hmm funny how that works. When it comes to automobiles, 6000k hid to 8000k are considered a danger since they cause drowsiness. You also lose more light output on the road so one has to focus more which also leads to even more drowsiness. Anything above 6k is basically pointless for driving anyways.
@@drgnzadiel101 Kinda the other way around. You want more blue lights for the road because the blue light interrupts your circadian rhythm and helps to keep you awake. It's the same reason why (most) phones now have a night mode which cuts down on the amount of blue light at night. 6000k is a pretty good temperature for headlights and is actually the most common when it comes to modern LED headlights (or LED retrofit bulbs)

You could probably reduce the amount of plastic on LED "globes", or heck even use paper to spread the light. I would say that glass could still a lot worse if its in terms of the overall environmental impact. But truth to be told, both are just as bad if you don't take into account the environmental/repurposing factors in production. EDIT: Though I'm sure that LED bulb waste would drop super significantly we standardised to a simpler way of replacing just the LED part, reusing the housing...
I hope that led modules become repairable and that we start using recyclable/replaceable cardboard or paper diffusers, if all that needed to be recycled was a small led module instead of a module, driver circuit and diffuser it would be a lot better!
A small correction: the glass around the halogen bulb isn't only to make them look like a normal one, is also because they emit some UV (check it out on the bare bulb without glass) and for protection, they are hotter. Otherwise, excellent video, as always.
I'm surprised you didn't mention the CRI scale, or color rendering index. It's super important when buying LEDs. I'd love to see the difference your spectrometer shows between an 80 CRI LED and a 97.

Hi Mahdi, about the light temperature there is more to it that what you said, the warm color(2700K) won't interfere with your sleeping cycle much, but the daylight color(6500K) temperature makes you awake and increases your focus, so if you read before bed, you should use warm but for example in a library you should use daylight for better focus, but warm is not good for designers and artists who need to see the right colors, the daylight temp would show the more accurate colors.
Funny thing is that the "warmer" the light, the colder it actually is. This is because the "temperature" of light is defined from the peak wavelength of the black body radiation spectrum, similar to the spectra Mehdi showed. The hotter the illuminating object, the higher the (average) energy of the photons, thus lower the wavelength. The reason a high light temperature is "cold" light has to do with how we 'perceive' warmth. I'd always choose LED lights simply for their efficiency. I don't like wasting stuff, but more importantly, with the high prices of power here in western Europe, it saves a hell of a lot of money in the long run and is very much worth the extra cost!
@@thatroom Their spectrum peaks in the infrared, which is most efficient in transferring heat to human skin. To get enough heat transfer through radiation (i.e. light) you need very high intensities. Making a heating lamp blue, you'll waste a lot of energy on radiation that doesn't transfer much energy to your skin. The temperature of light barely does not directly influence how well it transfers heat to something else, only with the temperature of the thing that radiates (or with the atomic energy levels in case of LEDs and fluorescent lights)
Also because if they were hot enough to glow blue, they would be hot enough to melt most metals. It's much simpler to make a large less hot thing to enough the same amount of heat.
Well, Orange Man is probably tired of being orange. He's not the brightest of the bunch either. Trump's ideas light old fashioned bulbs on top of his head. As a supporter, I do not endorse his war on Light bulbs.
and your point is? incondecent light produce a much better light. it's why I use it I'm my shop, it gives a more natural looking light and reduces shadows.
@@678friedbed You do realise that LEDs can be tuned to produce the same light spectrum? And the biggest problem with incandescent is that it wastes a lot of energy on infrared (i.e. heat), which we can't even see. Not to mention that natural light is a broad term. Incandescent only produces the sunset spectrum, while some people might like it to have daylight.
@@678friedbed LED has been able to produce as good and better quality light than incandescent for years now. You can even get "vintage" squirrel cage type ones that look indistinguishable from incandescent elements (when turned on, it's less convincing when not on) if you want that old time look.
I've replaced every bulb in my house with led smart color changing dimmable lights. The best investment I've made to date. My electric bill has almost halved, and I can set the lights to my mood. I'll never go back to the old lights. Although I do find I use the cooler shades more than warmer. I work second shift, so the cooler shades help to stimulate me. While the warmer shades I use before bedtime.
I deliberately light my work spaces with "cold" lighting (garage, desk, dungeon) to keep me alert and focused. I light the "comfortable" areas with warm light (bedroom, living room, kitchen). Seems to work well for me and I'm completely sane. Trust me.
@diamondflaw Yeah when I'm doing things I need I concentrate I have my light on like very whitish blue light but when I'm just relaxing I have it on warm light!
Exactly. One should never be afraid to say their minds, political or otherwise. I hate the world we live in, where you "have to" say repeatedly that you're just talking about science and not politics, when it shouldn't matter. Love your content. If someone like you would've been my electronics teacher back in vocational school, I might've not been drunk most of the time.
Am I the only person who has the impression that the LED lights almost never get their specified lifetime? The LED's themselves can probably work +15K hours without a problem, but all the electronics around it never seems to last that long.
I've had capacitors go out on many of my early LED bulbs well before their stated life was up. I've had incandescent bulbs last years with moderate use...
Definitely true. Especially the 'el cheapo' versions rarely hold up for more than half a year. I do have some Osram and Philips LEDs from about ten years ago and they still do absolutely fine. Though not being nearly as high powered as today's models they live up to the lifetime promises.
Yea my only problem with LEDs is some of the quality control is awful. Even some name brand lights from my local hardware store only last a few months most of the time. I still have a number of incandescent bulbs that have worked for over 10 years.
@@TedSchoenling That's my experience as well, but I open them up, try to get the PCB and other stuff out as gentle as possible and solder in a new capacitor. If I'm getle enough and it works - great, a few bucks saved. If not - it was broken anyway, no additional loss there.

18 years ago I replaced all the incandescent bulbs in the house I had just moved into with CFLs. After *nearly two decades* they're finally starting to wear out. Safe to say I got my money's worth out of them, and saved a boatload on my power bill. They served their purpose, but about 1/3 of my house now uses LEDs and that number will grow as the CFLs gradually fail. I swapped my truck's headlights for LEDs too and love them.
I will say that I haven't found a "warm" LED that comes anywhere close to the color temperature of an incandescent or CFL. Admittedly I haven't bought a bunch of them to compare, but both brands I have tried skewed more brown than orange/yellow.

incandescent or halogen have their uses still for some applications , in some cases necessary such as oven lights, also very useful as current limiters in resurrecting old radios, tvs, etc.
I have bought a halogen lamp especially for testing astronomical filters. Together with a very inexpensive (7.90 €) hand spectroscope, the spectral transmission ranges can be easily estimated. Halogen is hotter than other incandescent lighting, giving more intensity at shorter wavelengths.
I converted my whole house to LED several years ago. I don't think I could go back to CF or Incandescent now!

damn canada is flooded with led lights
*G O O D*
There is no reason to dislike Incandescent bulbs in Canada. The color looks good. It is energy efficient in winter which basically lasts 8 months. Most of the power is consumed by the water heater and refrigerator and the heating elements of the house. In comparison to heating a house, the power consumption of a Incandescent bulb is nothing.
@@louistournas120 But if you were running off a battery pack, you would want efficiency, and incandescent is the least efficient you can get. You can get an LED bulb that creates the equivalent light for 1/6 the energy cost. If you are generating your own energy, this is significant.
@@ColinFox if you take apart an led bulb, there is a mini circuit board housed inside. resistors, capacitors, inductors which could be considered hazardous waste.
You mean trump
I agree that LED lights are 50x better than incandescents, however I personally put incandescents at 1,000,000x better than CFL. Instantaneous on with the flip of a switch. Flicker free. Better color spectrum. No UV light. No toxicwaste. The only advantage of cfl was slightly more luminosity per watt.
Yes the incandescent are flicker free. better color.no uv.no toxic waste. Plus the energy wasted in the incandescents which is not turned in to light is the most valuable about the incandescents, this energy is near infrared which is very essential to us ,it pentetrate deep and charges the mitochondria which start repairing all our organs , we used to take this energy from the sun especially in the morning and evening when uv index is low but now due to our indoor lifestyle we are very defcient in it

Great video, thank you for this comparison. LED is indeed the lamp of the future. However... power supplies in LEDs differ a lot. That's why some of them are dimmable and others not. What you forgot in my opinion is the power-factor. Especially in LED-land there are a lot with a very bad PF, even way below 0.5. The simple capacitive droppers are the worst. This becomes a waste in countries where people and especially factories are starting to pay for VA instead of Watts (thanks to smart meters).

honestly, you're doing an amazing job at telling people how they are wrong. honestly, the required spectrum (and frequency) of a light source _will_ determine the type of source being used. you just need a desktop lamp to read some papers? use LED. need to do stuff in a workshop with rotating machinery (more or less in sync with the network frequency)? use incandescent or LED or a combination of all these ; even FLs on all three phases will be confusing. Need to do some painting or work with tiny electronic components? Then you need a smooth, well-distributed spectrum. Need some lighting in a bathroom, that also needs some IR so it feels warm? Then you can either chose LEDs and add some IR heating to complement them, or instead just use standard filament or halogen bulbs, as these might just radiate the right amount of heat and light to suit your use.
There is no "right light source" for any use, it really depends on the use and in what conditions things are being used. Making things such as incandescent lights unlawful will not save the world ; people need to be taught to use the correct device for the intended purpose.
I have LED lighting in my workshop (rather old ones) and in the last few years I thought I was going blue/green color blind because I could not distinguish the blue from the green bands on resistors. A few days ago I figured out that the problem was the LED lighting I was using . I happen to have an old incandescent lamp on my bench so when I have a problem reading a resistor I use it.
It definitely depends on the LED lights. There is now a CRI rating used to describe how well the LEDs approximate a black body spectrum like you get with sun or incandescent. Old LEDs score quite poorly on these tests. Newer LEDs that try to have a good spectrum (like the Philips and IKEA versions Mehdi tested) will list their CRI as part of their specifications. 100 would be perfect. 80 is a common baseline that looks pretty good. You can get them well over 90 for places where it's important like photography. So it might be worth investing in some new LED bulbs.
@ReverseEngineered
If for only occasional use I'd just stick with a good incandescent bulb, you can't go wrong.
@@OreoBambino the flicker you mentioned. Under LED lighting, when I or something moves it appears to have a strobe light effect. Really distracting.
The Philips EyeComfort bulbs are the best LEDs that I've come across. They pass strict criteria for flicker, photobiological safety (blue wavelength hazard), UV, IR, glare, and other metrics. They have a CRI of 90. This is not just marketing mumbo-jumbo -- I do notice a difference! Some of them also have a "warm dim" effect, which transitions the bulb to an amber glow as you dim it, just like the old incandescents used to do! (To my knowledge so far, Philips is the only company offering bulbs with this neat feature.) And some of these bulbs have a "classic glass" construction, instead of the typical plastic. The best of both worlds! Worth a couple extra dollars in my opinion.
The only incandescent bulbs left in my house now are the ones in the crawlspace and shed that rarely get turned on and were last changed over 25 years ago.
I've tried every led light avaliable at home and all of them feel "wrong". I just don't like them. I use normal and halogen bulbs at home and don't mind paying a bit more for electricity so the lights don't make me feel bad.
People moaned about incandescent lights, when they replaced gas lamps
In both situations, the established/existing light companies fought tooth and nail to hold back the new technology. And people are impressionable/bribable. Sometimes capitalism holds back progress when inefficient, short-term Greed overshadows data-driven Foresight. Don't get me started on the USA healthcare system and the fossil fuel industry...
@@EdricLysharae sometimes?
They had valid reason to at the time, this isn't an argument, when technology is premature it is premature. I know its fun to imagine they were just being stubborn but early incandescent were not like the modern kind, and the electrocution risks during early electrification were no joke at all, the "boom" was real.
While 60 watt equivalents are decent now with LED, 100 watts are still fast burn out junk, and neither have economical 100 cri equivalents yet in fact no where near 100 for the sale priced junk. The people who complain about people not using leds are the same ones who go on plane trips to prove how worldly they are, a single trip is likely dwarfs the ecological costs of not replacing every bulb with led, and that's without looking at the hidden ecological costs enabled by these things being made in china..

you just explained to me exactly why I hated fluorescent lights, the light always looked wrong and hollow to me... for years I stuck with incandescent because it just looked real. I swapped to LED, and found that some LED lights irritated me due to the pulsing nature of their light, I used a 1k fps camera to catch it, but the light wasn't steady on but rather ran at around 60hz (coincidence maybe?) My favorites are the ones I constructed myself on DC circuits to avoid the flicker factor that some LED bulbs once had
Still, CFLs aren't THAT bad. Although they do have mercury in them, pure elemental mercury (which is what is in the tube) is the LEAST dangerous form mercury can be in. So a break isn't a huge deal.

I can sense the fear in your eyes as you almost dropped that bulb.
As an electrician I've spent a lot of time with color temperatures for lighting. 2700K is great for bedrooms when you want to sleep. 3000K is best for use in your house in areas you want light like kitchens and living rooms, hallways. 4000k is a great workshop light or garages and sheds. Color rendition is also an important consideration if you're doing beauty work like makeup.
And 6400K is for shitroom. At least 4500K...
Hmm funny how that works. When it comes to automobiles, 6000k hid to 8000k are considered a danger since they cause drowsiness. You also lose more light output on the road so one has to focus more which also leads to even more drowsiness. Anything above 6k is basically pointless for driving anyways.
@@drgnzadiel101 Kinda the other way around. You want more blue lights for the road because the blue light interrupts your circadian rhythm and helps to keep you awake. It's the same reason why (most) phones now have a night mode which cuts down on the amount of blue light at night. 6000k is a pretty good temperature for headlights and is actually the most common when it comes to modern LED headlights (or LED retrofit bulbs)
for a normal person or hobbyist like me with no electronic background iv been able to find ways to diagnose and fix most of the household electronics or electrical problems but its quite a necessity for a person to be able to understand a little beyond the basics fix to things around the house or ger things done creatively your way and thats when you realise the broad complexity represented and the frustration that arises while learning,i personally seriously cant keep up for long with serious,boring lectures about values and numbers or equations and formulas when your end goal is fixed on household,to make matters worst the amount of misleading or inaccurate content vs legit ones are overwhelming..

"If someone talks about electrify I have to 'rectify' it"
hahaha.
Add a row on your table : easy to recycle ... the recycling process in factories
This needs to be adjusted by expected lifetime. A properly designed LED light lasts 30 years.
You could probably reduce the amount of plastic on LED "globes", or heck even use paper to spread the light. I would say that glass could still a lot worse if its in terms of the overall environmental impact. But truth to be told, both are just as bad if you don't take into account the environmental/repurposing factors in production.
EDIT: Though I'm sure that LED bulb waste would drop super significantly we standardised to a simpler way of replacing just the LED part, reusing the housing...
@@UltimatePwnageNL That's theoretical. Actual lifetimes vary wildly. Also there should be a row for brightness and color change over lifetime.
That's not consumer experience.
I hope that led modules become repairable and that we start using recyclable/replaceable cardboard or paper diffusers, if all that needed to be recycled was a small led module instead of a module, driver circuit and diffuser it would be a lot better!

Hi Mahdi, about the light temperature there is more to it that what you said, the warm color(2700K) won't interfere with your sleeping cycle much, but the daylight color(6500K) temperature makes you awake and increases your focus, so if you read before bed, you should use warm but for example in a library you should use daylight for better focus, but warm is not good for designers and artists who need to see the right colors, the daylight temp would show the more accurate colors.
Funny thing is that the "warmer" the light, the colder it actually is. This is because the "temperature" of light is defined from the peak wavelength of the black body radiation spectrum, similar to the spectra Mehdi showed. The hotter the illuminating object, the higher the (average) energy of the photons, thus lower the wavelength. The reason a high light temperature is "cold" light has to do with how we 'perceive' warmth.
I'd always choose LED lights simply for their efficiency. I don't like wasting stuff, but more importantly, with the high prices of power here in western Europe, it saves a hell of a lot of money in the long run and is very much worth the extra cost!
why are heating lamps red?
@@thatroom Their spectrum peaks in the infrared, which is most efficient in transferring heat to human skin. To get enough heat transfer through radiation (i.e. light) you need very high intensities. Making a heating lamp blue, you'll waste a lot of energy on radiation that doesn't transfer much energy to your skin. The temperature of light barely does not directly influence how well it transfers heat to something else, only with the temperature of the thing that radiates (or with the atomic energy levels in case of LEDs and fluorescent lights)
Also because if they were hot enough to glow blue, they would be hot enough to melt most metals. It's much simpler to make a large less hot thing to enough the same amount of heat.

@@678friedbed You do realise that LEDs can be tuned to produce the same light spectrum? And the biggest problem with incandescent is that it wastes a lot of energy on infrared (i.e. heat), which we can't even see.
Not to mention that natural light is a broad term. Incandescent only produces the sunset spectrum, while some people might like it to have daylight.
@@678friedbed LED has been able to produce as good and better quality light than incandescent for years now. You can even get "vintage" squirrel cage type ones that look indistinguishable from incandescent elements (when turned on, it's less convincing when not on) if you want that old time look.

Idk why, but warm lights look really "gross" to me, there's something about it that looks dirty, or old

@@psygn0sis you are repeating yourself
Exactly.
One should never be afraid to say their minds, political or otherwise.
I hate the world we live in, where you "have to" say repeatedly that you're just talking about science and not politics, when it shouldn't matter.
Love your content. If someone like you would've been my electronics teacher back in vocational school, I might've not been drunk most of the time.

I completely missed that he almost dropped that..

Am I the only person who has the impression that the LED lights almost never get their specified lifetime? The LED's themselves can probably work +15K hours without a problem, but all the electronics around it never seems to last that long.
I've had capacitors go out on many of my early LED bulbs well before their stated life was up. I've had incandescent bulbs last years with moderate use...
Definitely true. Especially the 'el cheapo' versions rarely hold up for more than half a year. I do have some Osram and Philips LEDs from about ten years ago and they still do absolutely fine. Though not being nearly as high powered as today's models they live up to the lifetime promises.
@@kola3125 in your opinion, planned obsolence or not?
Yea my only problem with LEDs is some of the quality control is awful. Even some name brand lights from my local hardware store only last a few months most of the time. I still have a number of incandescent bulbs that have worked for over 10 years.
@@TedSchoenling That's my experience as well, but I open them up, try to get the PCB and other stuff out as gentle as possible and solder in a new capacitor. If I'm getle enough and it works - great, a few bucks saved. If not - it was broken anyway, no additional loss there.
this was super interesting and fun to watch, thanks!
