I was thinking about that too because he doesn't just read the script of something he "believes" in (or makes it funny so ppl don't skip, which is fine too), this man made an AD!
It is infuriating! When LED lights for home application came around I was delighted, only to discover that the concept of planned obsolescence was still in effect.
Which makes the whole situation even more infuriating, given the fact that cartell-planned obsolescence in traditional light bulbs was one of the first large-scale industrial scams to be found out...
no worries, the "climate change" is also a cartel and a industrial scam to keep countries from developing by denying them generating energy in cheap ways.
nothing a bunch of laundered "green credits" (also invented by, drum rolls, the gas and oil companies) you bough for cheap doesn't solve
You can either buy the low wattage, high lumens ones (granted, pricier), or you can buy cheapo and modify them to run lower wattage.
Bro, the reputable manufacturers have stopped doing planned obsolesence ( except for apple and the company supplying Mcdonalds ice cream machines )

This makes me think of LED Christmas lights. They work well for a while but after some time the bulbs go dim. I did some digging one day out of curiosity and noticed a resistor installed in parallel with the lights to prevent the bulbs from completely dying when the resistor fails. In my case I suppose the resistor failed leading to a higher current draw through the resistor but not high enough to trip any breakers, kill any lights, or melt the transistor.
I've seen that with incandescent Christmas lights too, to prevent the "one goes out, they all go out!" problem.

Funniest thing is that when I buy the cheapest ones from my local store, they don't fail, literally never had any of them fail, and they're all over my house.
When I buy Phillips or other brands, they always die very shortly, and get replaced with the cheap ones.
I guess the big brands led's are just overengineered and have some failure points the cheap ones don't have.
But honestly I'm just lucky with that cheap brand since I've tried other cheap brands and they were terrible.
Same here, we just get generic Walmart bulbs and they last just fine.
I run the generics I like best, and they're great too.
Good that you explain about the warranty. In my country the replacement of reputable brands with warranty happens in a matter of seconds.

Interviewer: How many times do you want to get shocked with in 30 seconds?
Mehdi: *yes*
I purchased 20 x 4' LED fluorescent light fitting substitutes for my home. after 6 months one failed. I took it back under warranty and they replaced it. then 3-4 others began to fail. I became tired of driving to the store and pulled a unit apart for an autopsy. In each there was 4 x SMD resistors that had fried. I pulled a part a working unit to see what they should have been. and checked them on my infrared camera. They were 20K, rated to only 80mw, but through poor design they were dissipating 300mw, sitting at about 70º C. Meaning that they would slowly cook and either burn out or de-solder themselves. I replaced them with 22K 1/2W regular pigtail resistors and they never failed again. When the unmodified lamps subsequently failed I could repair them and restore them to the ceiling in one third of the time it would take for me to go to the store with the receipt and haggle for a replacement. Total replacement parts cost? < 20 cents
I've been watching these videos for years, and every time i laugh my ass off when the sparks fly. Thanks for the laughs.
Made me remember the cheap lights my grandpa bought, how did i know they were cheap even before they died?

Hey Mehdi, I was wondering why I can’t get a continuity reading when testing an operational LED bulb. Can you help me figure this out??? Also, what is your take on these diy oscilloscope kits?
Huh. I have only ever had like 4 or 5 die, and I often buy dirt cheap ones. And the ones that died were in a ceiling fan fixture that made the LEDs flicker when the fan was on, so I attribute that mostly to an old lighting fixture that was designed for incandescent lighting.
I loved the"unless you have extra skin to spare and blood to shed"

Which EB video has the record number of shocks?
I have a set of those outside bulbs like you have but mine are incandescent and I've had them for years without one burning out. Outdoor and everything all year, even with Canadian winter.
Nice video, I very much agree. The main reason I switched to LED years ago is so I don't have the hassle of changing light bulbs as often! The energy savings was a bonus to me.
True that, all the LEDs I have, and a few CFLs I have left, have always lasted longer than any incandescent lamp we've ever had.
Vielleicht die LED-Lampen aus der Einführungszeit. Da sollten die Käufer dafür begeistert werden, die Qualität war in Ordnung und die Kühlkörper reichlich bemessen. Nachdem das Aus für die Glühbirne durchgesetzt war, gind die Qualität der LED-Lampen rapide zurück und ohne ausreichende Wärmeabfuhr sterben die LED reihenweise.

@ElectroBOOM - Can you do a video about dimmers, but not only magnetic power supply vs electronic, but forward phase and reverse phase and what that all means. I have dimmers all over the house using Lutron Radio Ra2 technology, but each dimmer needs specific type of bulbs, but bulbs are the store are not labeled with the phase information. The LED bulbs are replacement bulbs for standard 120v incandescent bulbs. Would love to get your thoughts on this if there is an angle for you and you find it interesting also.
For some reason, watching this guy getting shocked a million times still is funny to me.

Glass is his weakness
Change out that resistor (@5:00) for something a few ohms higher - that'll dim the LEDs a bit, but they won't be driven as hard, and they'll last a lot longer. (Although, good luck doing so without mangling the socket threads.)
Or breaking the glass in this case
@@Epsicronics The resistor isn't inside the bulb, so breaking the glass is pointless. But you do have to break into the socket.
I'm wondering if there's a way to limit the current on the AC side (outside of the bulb) without screwing up the operation of the chip... might be a product there! If you pre-rectify and current-limit the input power, even those craptastic Chinese bulbs might last a long time!
@@jpdemer5 yeah that might be interesting.
What i mean is that the way these bulbs are formed the socket is pretty much bound to the glass so removing it without breaking the glass is extremely hard in most cases

Engineers design parts to last. Manufacturing companies that churn out thousands of these things design parts to break after 3-6 months so you have to continually buy replacements.
Do manufacturers like to be super GREEDY? For 💰?
Sounds like he struck a nerve on an average Canadian engineer.
Basically yeah. Engineers would love to make stuff that lasts as long as possible. But first the marketing guys come in and say "you have to make the product sexier, it doesn't matter if it isn't as good as long as it looks better than competing products!" So you lose some functionality and durability due to that. The the bean counters come in and say "these products must fail after the warranty period expires so that people buy more products!" And so you get these shitty products that might look nice but are generally just bad. It's not because the company couldn't have made a better product, it's because they don't want to. That's how you get stuff like Apple laptops that fail after a year or two due to some really dodgy design "features" that basically guarantee those laptops don't last that long. And LED lights that fail after a 1000 hours instead of 30 000 hours they could last if they were made better.
No, the companies that ask these manufactures to make it for as much profit margins as possible and the boss gets a huge sum of money.
Price does not equate quality from any location, that or brand. I paid a lot for certain brands and they still die in 3-6 months.
A lot of the time is is also the enclosure that the led is in.
Or engineers designing down to a price point because that's all a customer is prepared to pay for an item even when it has a short useful life.

That reminds me... the glass dome fell off one of my old Cree bulbs (first production run of their first bulbs, 2014), so I should glue it back on. The electronics and heat sinking are really quite good on these bulbs, but the glass falls off easily. And it has a rubbery coating on the glass so it collects dust and fuzz which is hard to remove.

I absolutely loathe my old management when they keep insisting on switching from a light fixture with a built in LED, when it fails (which sometimes does) instead of an easy 1 minute bulb replacement you’re now stuck with replacing an entire fixture.
Correct, man, components pushed to the limit to give their best for a few hours and circuitry reduced to a minimum. I also bought the same lamps, two of them died two days apart, not even 500 hours of operation ...
