Commercial or residential? I know it's the failure mechanism in
residential LED lighting. Commercial may be better. Or not.


The "better" LED lights are those designed as a fixture with the LEDs
separate from the power supplies. It's all heat management. Trying to
cram lots of Lumens into a standard dimension Edison style bulb that is
crammed into a fixture that has no provisions for air flow is really
pushing it.
