I’ve also treated the topic of LED illumination more conceptually; take, for example, this piece from more than seven years ago that analyzed LED and CFL light bulbs as potential successors to ...

That means inside every LED bulb are tiny circuit components -- and their soldered contact points -- which are far more vulnerable than the diode itself. The Lighting Research Center of the Rensselaer ...

A unique mechanical design aspires to remove heat from this LED light bulb’s insides, but you still need to keep external ventilation in mind.

The numbers you see on the box don't always work out in real life. LED bulbs do last longer, but those claims about five to 10 years are estimates based on internal testing -- and companies are always ...
