LED lighting failures

[apostolakisl]

Anyone have any better suggestions? I think I'm done with the Ecosmart bulbs.

I am pretty sure that "ecosmart" is a home depot trademark, not a brand. I have 16 of the ecosmart cr6's. But they are actually CREE CR6's. I really don't think the other ecosmart bulbs are made by CREE, though they may contain CREE parts as CREE makes LED components for a gazillion third parties.

I have only had my CR6's for a couple months. But I am very happy with them. I have some LR6's as well that are well over a year old. CREE has a top notch reputation. I have never read anything bad about CR6 bulb reliability.

Sorry, I meant that I am done with the Ecosmart/LSG PAR38 bulbs. My PAR30's are working fine and they are the same brand. But they are 17W, not 24W like the ones that are failing. Looks like Sylvania is rebranding these same bulbs also, Lowes is selling them.
