I bought a bunch of them at Walmart and then Dollar
Tree was selling some for ONE DOLLAR (US) for TWO PACK. I stocked up.
I am not sure which is in this fixture, but no others flicker from
either store.....


So, why don't ya just replace the thing and be done with it?



My thoughts too. I have a celaing fan with 4 bulbs in it. I put LEDs
in it a while back replacing the CFLs. I seldom use the fan part, bu
the lights stay on from about 9 in the morning to 12 at night almost
every day. A few days ago one of the LEDs would go off for about 2
seconds and come on for a short time and off again. I just replaced it.
I may open it up just to see one day, but have not taken time to even
worry about it. It may have been of the free ones the power company was
giving out a few years ago. At one time they gave out about a dozen CFL
and then a dozen LEDs a few years later.

One and two dollar or less items are just not worth the time to worry
about when they last over 6 months.
