How long does it keep working before it breaks (LED fails etc.)? How many months or years?

I have had mine for a few mths. Haven't replaced the batteries yet. But I use mine for my chicken house so they are triggering it. The light sensor is still pretty good right now. Although I do also see a tad bit difference. Right now I still reccommend it. Enjoy yours.

It has worked continuously for over a year at which time the sensor seems to have weakened and you have to be closer then the normal setting to get it to trigger the light. Light does still work.

I have had mine a few months works well but have already gone through 4 sets of batteries. Might be more cost effective to buy an electrical unit at this rate it's gotten pretty expensive, because it takes 4 c batteries.

The LEDs are built into the lamp. The LEDs last for up to 35,000 hours which is 25-30 years!

Theoretically it should last forever, however depends upon the quality of the LED's themselves. The Apollo arrived with one light half out already rofl!

Mine have been on for 6 months non stop, most leds have a 50000 hour lifespan

No, unless you take the unit apart and conduct some DIY soldering and find a matching LED. However, LEDs have a general life expectancy of 50,000 hrs. If you use your lights for 10 hours a day, it should last 13.7 yrs. Of course it can lost longer.

The light is suppose to last longer than a month. I know it's suppose to have a year warranty on it. I've seen customers have them last a couple months, maybe up to a year. It just depends.

that's a good question - I don't know the answer but Contour says the life of the bulb is around 20 years but even then it has a lifetime warranty - I think the bulb will out last me :o} - I see LED light bulbs rated at 10,000 to 100,000 hours -- I really like mine and seems very well engineered

The average LED light lasts between 25,000-50,000 hours. In figuring this, if you use the lamp for an hour a day, every day, the bulbs will last over 68 years. There is also a 1 year warranty that comes with the lamp. If you would like to email the company, the address is: info@spheregadget.com and a representative will contact you within 24 hours, according to the site. PS...I Love mine!!

No; it has 32 LED's that have a service life of at least 70,000 hours replacement "bulbs" will never be an issue. If the light stops working it will be because the electronics powering the 32 LED board has failed. I really like them and plan on getting more if them.

I have had mine running for around a year almost constantly. LED's are rated for anywhere between 2,000 and 20,000 hours. So to answer your question, a long time!

The LED on my switch broke sometime in the last 11 months. It no longer lights up. Otherwise, the device still does what it is intended to do - it turns power to your appliance on or off.

I haven't tested it (Thankfully) but I think I read in the packaging that it would last up to 48 hours. They are really fine LED lights so I could imagine it would last several hours for sure.

Mine has lasted six months so far. I really doubt that you can replace the bulbs, you would have to get the right leds and then you would have to solder them onto the board.

The manufacturer's website lists 50,000 hour lifetime. For LEDs, "lifetime" is the point at which they dim to 70% of their original brightness, rather than actually burning out. And since they are wired in parallel, if an LED fails, the rest should continue working. I think these are voltage-driven (as opposed to current-driven), so the failure of an LED doesn't mean the other LEDs will be driven harder, as would be the case in a current-driven configuration.Honestly, the power module is probably the weak link in most LED fixtures.

I believe the LED is built in rather than a replaceable lamp. It is supposed to last for 30,000 hours so if it is not working the projector is broken and needs to be repaired.

I've been using it pretty heavily for 6 months and the LEDs work perfectly. The only thing that has degraded are the wasd keys from being used too often, and that's just a little paint coming off the top.
