Just take ones that have a decent temperature rating and you're good. Except those cost 5 cents more and the lamp lasts forever which they manufacturers hate :(
Fixing things is a drag on next quarter profits. Buy the upgrade with the ten cent fix at 10% markup over the original because it’s “new and improved”.
We’re just circling old inputs like an LLM trained on itself.
Maybe LEDS are low quality? and therefore fail prematurely?
Higher temperatures cause electronic components to fail earlier in life
2. Edison-screw fixtures are designed for incandescent bulbs. They trap heat inside the fixture, accelerating the death of LEDs. Integrated LED fixtures tend to be more reliable, but installing them is not an option for renters and unskilled homeowners.

when it comes to LEDs, is a good way to remember it, Dubai vs "don't buy"?
TL;DR: some countries require manufacturers to underdrive the diodes allowing them to last for decades [not "designed obsolescence"].
Planned obsolescence. Because LEDs would otherwise last for decades, they deliberately drive them as hard as they can to get a little more light at the expense of decreased efficiency and massively decreased lifespan. YouTuber bigclivedotcom has made many videos about this.
Whatever happened to those PhD theses I used to see from China on how to build LED lamp power supplies without electrolytic capacitors?
