abovedeck Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Anyone know the life expectancy of the leds on dimmer switches/keypads/etc? I have both kd120 and kp6s and have wondered at what point will the status leds or backlight leds burn out. Seeing as they are always on...

Now considering led bulbs are sold as 23 year life expectancy I don't think these are burning out any time soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R_Willis Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 I was just laying in bed the other night looking at mine wondering this same thing. Mine have been going strong basically since C4 came out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALSO good to know I just removed the ambient settings from a few and have them going on full brightness at all times now and made me think.

RyanE Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 As have mine, 11+ years now. Not a single LED on dimmers or keypads has stopped yet. RyanE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyknight Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Don't think I've ever seen one of those LEDs fail either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
