Same goes for light bulbs
Well yes, but the light would be very dim, if we are talking about incandescent bulbs.
Technology connections had an episode about it.
They get dimmer over time. And they do it gradually so you don’t notice it until you buy a new one and realize how dim the old one was
Most LEDs run on DC, and the built-in transformer is the most likely component to fail. If the LED is failing and getting dimmer, it’s most likely due to poor heat dissipation.
If we had little 12v adapters and separate LED modules, you could reduce waste by only replacing the part that fails, and manufacturers would have greater incentive to improve build quality. Instead, we get cheaply manufactured bulb-shaped disposable units that need to be thrown away when one part fails.
Yeah I’ve only ever had one LED bulb die, and I think that was because it was faulty in some way. I’ve had a much better experience with them compared to CFLs.
I’ve had lots of led bulbs die. I think it’s because I bought them at the dollar store.
