LED sidelights

[dan_b]

Whilst fiddling with my headlamp aim to get through the MOT, I noticed that one of my LED sidelights is flickering ever-so-slightly. I've had them in for about 7 months now. Is this indicitive of imminent failure?

I guess it must get too warm in there for LEDs to be truely happy - they don't like to run hot.

I reckon I'll buy some more from Autobulbs so I've got a supply of spares if they're going to go pop fairly regularly!

Not sure if Mike (Skipton) had a problem sometime back (last yr maybe more) think i remember him posting something about 1 flickering

Cheers Phil

PS Had mine in 18 months no problems

I did indeed - but it was about 3 years ago!

I put it down to poor quality control in the end, although the bulbs were from Autobulbs direct! Couldn't be ar5ed sending them back, so just made my own DRLs!

Cheers,

Mike
