Ive had LEDs burn out on me multiple of times. Everything has a lifespan everything is prone to Defects and imperfections and wear and tear and such. When I hear "this will never that" no matter the product I scoff. Im sorry but when it comes to Camping and survival gear any hint of the item being magical turns me off on the company. Id prefer to hear the hour lifespan not "never" same thing for anything else. We May know this on this forum but how many people looking for a product with little knowledge on the subject will trust marketing first? I Dont know why but I just take offense to marketing ploys especially in fields I know a think or two about Cause I still remember when I didnt know a thing or two and fell for them myself only to get kicked in the rear.

Anywho sorry to get off topic there. I really have been looking for a decent lamp for awhile now and been relying on Candles and flashlights for too long.
