Do Just One Thing

Danny Seo on

Ever buy an LED light bulb that’s supposed to last 50,000 hours, but it stops working way too soon? There are two reasons why it probably stopped emitting any light. First, LED bulbs don’t do well when they are hot, so installing them in light fixtures with a tight-fitting shade is a surefire way to make them fail. Second, if you buy cheap LED bulbs that feel very lightweight, it means they don’t have a heavier aluminum base that helps pull heat away. These cheaper bulbs are also prone to fail quickly because of heat. Invest in heavier bulbs and keep them cool to make your LED bulbs last longer.
