I don't think Maglite rates these bulbs, but I have some that are at least 20 years old. Each Maglite comes with a spare bulb in the butt cap.

The claim is correct. The LED is composed of a solid chunk of heavy-duty plastic with a thick semiconductor inside, instead of a fragile glass case with an extremely thin wire suspended inside. 100000 hours is probably speculation, some defective LEDs may go out sooner, while others may last indefinitely, but that should be an average. This flashlight is the 1st gen LED model, NOT the zero generation incan with the spare bulb. You do not change an LED bulb like an incandescent.

I do not know. I try to have extra bulb on hand. During a power loss for about 4 days I used the light to read books. Sorry I am not in tune with total hours.

It's based on 3/hrs of day of use, which is 1,095 hours/year, or about 22.83 years. As with any product, using it more or less frequently will extend/reduce the life. In my own case, I've used three of these for more than 3 hours a day for 2.5 years or so, and have not had any issues so far. Also, the lifetime quoted assumes you follow the directions (i.e., don't install this in a *fully* enclosed fixture as the heat buildup will rapidly degrade the LED).

Thank you for your query. Please be informed that the PTAE1000 lamps that we have in stock are high-quality, OEM compatible lamps with an average lamp life of 3000 hours.

It is my understanding that these bulbs are not replaceable. I would call Lithonia tech support and asked them. Also, take a picture and go back to who sold it to you and see if they can help. It is also my understanding that they are supposed to last for 30,000 hours which is about 8 years at 10 hours per day.

Theoretically, leds should last for years regardless of operation hours. If they fail from defect, it is usually right away. That said, voltage spike or damp will shorten average lifespan.

Its a L.E.D. Bulb rated for 50000 hours, if you use it 6 hours a day that 25 years of life. Most likely will out live us.ThanksBill

They are a sealed unit. you cannot replace a bulb they have 104 leds and are a half inch thick. Somewhere I read they are supposed to last 30,000 hours. May be able to get more info from led wholesalers.

Hi Ronnie, the lifespan of this bulb is estimated at 50,000 hours. This includes lumen depreciation and other factors. Most high quality LED bulbs are rated by Energy Star at 30,000 to 35,000. Thanks!

Probably an hour or two... But it really depends how long the string of LED are... I can't really say for sure... They're not that costly so buy 'em and try 'em to see... If you have a dimmer they will last longer.

Sorry for the long response time. LED bulbs literally last for years. Mine is going strong andI expect it to last and last. It's the batteries that need replacement as others have said - aboutonce per year. These are great for RVs or van conversions as they don't use a drop of energy from the 12V battery and give out a good amt. of light.

These bulbs seem to last a long time. We've used 2 of these bulbs in the last 6 months in our kitchen fixture and we leave that light on for 8 hours every night. We were gone on vacation for 5 days and the lights were still working after being on constantly day and night.

I dont know about the particular details, but I use it for a few hours so its not worth switching out a bulb for that time.

Anywhere from 6-12 months of normal use. I believe they are rated for ~200 hours. These aren't "long life" bulbs. They're on the opposite end of the scale, "high performance".

10 Years That is the Life of the battery but how long it lasts being Used I do not Know. The LED Light is supposed to last for 2400 Hrs.

An LED will typically burn 50,000 hours or longer before beginning to lose brightness. They don't "burn out" like a traditional bulb.

Does not appear to be replaceable very easily. But this shouldn't be a problem because when I look at other LED lamp descriptions on the Net, the ones that give a lifetime spec generally say they're rated for 20,000-50,000 hours of usage.

Theoretically, the life span of led light bulb is over 30,000h, so please don't worry about this issue. No way to replace the light bulbs. Thanks - saicoo
