We purchased 3.5 years ago 10 LED bulbs to replace 250 watt metal halide bulbs. 3 LED bulbs have failed. They are 35’ off the floor of our sanctuary. Was told by OEO that they had problems with the first generation. They agreed to replace all 10 at no cost. Fine, but I had to spend $575.00 for labor in order to do the swap out. and high- lift rental. In addition after the first purchase we bought 8 more bulbs for a total outlay of $5500.00. The second purchase so far no failures to date. On the 10 bulb install, 1 day after installing , a new bulb failed to work the following day. So my electrical energy savings have been wiped out with labor and equipment rental. I requested as a good Will gesture, help in paying my first labor bill of $575. Numerous emails have gone to deaf ears. When called I got a run a round. I am keeping my fingers crossed that these 18 bulbs will last long enough to make their purchase worthwhile.
