Hey Reefers. I’m curious how long you expect new led reefing lights to last until they need replacement? Of course everyone has a different amount of usage hours, this is just based on what your expectations are when looking to buy new led lights.
 
After 3 years the spectrum would likely start to shift, but with enough left over power it can be adjusted back.

I would expect any LED light to last somewhere between 5 to 10 years, but will likely consider replacing it at around the fifth year.
