How Long Should Optronics Uni-Lite LED Clearance Lights Last?

Question:

Hi I purchased 8 of these last year from you on 2/12/18. I have 3 of them at this point that has one of the two LED’s burnt out. Are you seeing problems with these not lasting? I bought them for $ each a year ago and now they have almost doubled in price. I need to purchase replacements but I am hesitant due to quality and price. Thank You for any info and or help you might have.

The Uni-Lite LED Clearance and Side Marker Light w Grommet - Submersible - 2 Diodes - Amber Lens # MCL11AKB have not had any real negative reviews or noted issues to my knowledge. With that kind of burn out you may want to check your connections as they shouldn't be having issues like you stated. We have had them since 2011 and haven't have any reports like this. It would definitely be worth putting a multimeter like # PT89ZR on them as they should draw 0.03 amps at 12.8 volts and the LEDs have a lifetime warranty.
