These burn out far within weeks. What is a better brand that will last longer?

I've had the same problem, and just got a bulb from Flukers. I've only had it a few days, but so far, so good.

I still use the same bulb and usually have no problem with them. Having one last for 3 months was unusual but that could happen, I was more disappointed about the second bulb not working at all. If you purchase them you should test both bulbs once received.

I am in the same boat. It lasted 4 weeks. this is expensive and poor quality.

I just put the bulb in the deep dome lamp and plugged the lamp into one of those switching timers.

I've had mine less than a month. they serve as my son's night light and they burned out after a couple of weeks. very disappointing as i don't have the ability/ingenuity or time to take them all off and figure out which is burnt out. REALLY disappointing for a $27 string of lights!

They lasted a few months, but now a lot of them are burnt out. Although to be fair the other brands did the same thing, and had about the same life in my under cabinet lights. I am starting to wonder if something is wrong with the light fixture itself maybe.

No sure it is some generic brand burned out after about 30 days. Vendor would not respond to any of my attempts to contact them for a replacement.

I had the same issue where all the original bulbs blew out in a month. I shopped around a bit for finding a good replacement and home depot, lowes, Ikea all have them fairly cheap. It uses the G4 halogen bulb. Hope this helps.

These are only available in 3 watts, & they burn out in 3 days to 33 days, based on my experience with 17 bulbs used.

One brand of this device was terrible and lasted less than a month. The new one I purchased is a different brand and does not flicker and is working super well. I will search my amazon purchases to tell you the good brand. The picture you are showing was reviewed by me as totally worthless. I then bought the Westek SLC4CG and it has worked flawlessly with no flicker .

I'd go back to the manufacturer. LED bulbs should last decades - not years.

Mine hasn't burnt out yet so I am not sure how long they last. Ours are not located in a spot where we use them every day either.

They are great bulbs but they are not cheap. The quality of the light and the bulb are good. They used to have a better warranty. I tried Nokya and they looked good but did not last at all, even though they are cheaper they kept blowing out. If you do not want to spend the money then I would go with a Sylvania bulb. Hope this helps.

I used them indoors. They last about 6 weeks before sections started to go out. Eventually (4 months), I had to remove them because almost half of the sections were burnt out. I would not recommend these. I wasted my money and the company offered no replacement or refund.

Contact the seller or the manufacturer, they are supposed to last a lot longer than that. I did read from other reviewers that they had problems being used in enclosed light fixtures, that they burned out quickly. Mine is used in an open, recessed (can) light fixture in the ceiling. Some also tried using it for a fixture that had a dimmer switch and this is not made for that, and theirs burned out as well. I hope I helped. Mine has been in for over 5 months, hopefully I won't have to eat my words.

Yes, but these have burned out very quickly for me. I have used all 10 in less than a year. I will not buy again.

I had one for about 2 months and it burnt out. Used in a birdfeeder. Sent back.

I don't know but I've gone through 4 of these so far. They last about a week for some reason.

These light sets are cheap, cheaply made, limited QC and fail at a very high rate. Your best bet is to purchase a name brand, which is now selling these, from a brick and mortar location that you can easily return failing sets, as I do now. Otherwise, expect a high failure rate from these sets purchased from overseas vendors. Personally, I went through many sets from various overseas vendors and could not get one that would work as advertised or expected.
