These bulbs are not economical at all because I have to constantly replace them. Saving on electricity does not justify these expensive bulbs burning out in less than a year. The only two that have lasted are in my range hood for light above my stove. Those experience extreme heat and yet they are fine. I have had to replace 2 light fixtures that have permanent LEDs and no replaceable parts too.

    LED bulbs do last, that’s why they’re manufactured to overdrive the elements so they burn out sooner.

    Try getting dimmable ones and run them a little lower.
