So, why do you think that happened with the LEDs, Chuck?
Good question. I asked them if any of their computer gear or appliances
suffered a similar fate and they said, no, it was just the LEDs.
My guess is that the LED units are singularly intolerant of supply
spikes. On reflection, I should have asked them for a smoked unit and
done some investigation--but at the time I was working on getting a
large oak tree off my driveway so that I could get out. (You should have
seen the 80' ponderosa pine that missed the house by about 6 inches.)
Priorities, you know. I should have also asked about the brand used.
There's some terrible cut-rate junk out there.
