I've replaced probably 75% of the bulbs in my house with LEDs. Of those, I think 3 have failed...which is a ridiculously high failure rate. So far returning them without a receipt hasn't been an issue because the one time the cust svc person said anything, I said, "Look at the package- "5 year guarantee", they have not been out in the marketplace for 5 years, so it has to still be under warranty" and they exchanged it for me.
Planned obsolescence is just about the epitome of greed. Making sure an item fails so that people have to buy another one. Capitalists are greedy, selfish scum.
