The lifetime of an LED lamp does not actually mean it will burn out/die like a regular bulb (if it's properly made). All LED light bulbs, from LED Candle light all the way to LED track light, are unlike incandescent bulbs in that they lose their brightness over time and by the end of their rated "lifetime", they are at 70% of the brightness they started at as opposed to completely burning out.
Many sellers copy the lifetime ratings of the manufacturers, which are OFTEN inaccurate, or just false. Many claim their bulbs last 100,000 hours. We've spoken to a number of LED manufacturers from around the world and many of them are now more conservative about their ratings - saying they now last 35,000 to 50,000 hours. Your best bet is to buy from a seller with a good warranty, and expect to get what you pay for.
