To the extent that the lamp was failing to deliver it's effect?


These were in a run of wall washers, so the effect remains ok, but there
is growing variation in brightness now depending on how many LEDs each
lamp has lost. It was just surprising how quickly LEDs began to fail.

There is also a concealed uplighting run of blue LED rope lights in a
raised section of ceiling (these have performed better with no dropped
LEDs yet).
