> Once everyone has 50 year bulbs, you're out of business.

This seems to have been the issue with the expensive Philips Hue LED bulbs (the ZigBee ones). We installed ours close to a decade ago, and we took them with us when we moved to a new house. I don't think I've replaced a single one yet.

Philips seems to have de-emphasized that set of bulbs in favor of cheaper models, as far as I can tell?



I have 13-y-o Phillips LED flood lights in some track lighting (50W equivalents, maybe?). Working great!
