12 V LED lighting is worse.
I now only buy incandescent bulbs for my trailers and vehicles.
The LED may last 10,000 hours, but the conductors are size of dental floss and last 3-6 months. Then entire light is garbage.
This is problem with all Chinese products. They cheap out on all wires and they fail. Chain is only as strong as weakest link.
In a little fairness this only illustrates laziness on the fixture manufacturers behalf. This is boiler plate copy/paste language from the LED board manufacturer from whom they are sourcing materials. The manufacturers, especially the smaller ones are leaning on their component vendors warranty.
