The world economy is based on planned obsolescence - necessary in order to perpetuate jobs and spending.

Therefore the life expectancy of these nano-lights will of necessity be predetermined.

In other words, probably no longer then traditional light bulbs.

Planned decrepitude was not always the case:

My cousin had a light bulb from the early part of the century that finally burnt out last year. They had a memorial service for the bulb honoring, its 75 yrs of dedicated service.

Imagine that!

I look forward to trying these out when they are available for purchase. I love the idea of full spectrum lighting from a device that has no glass or gases involved.

I do wonder if they'll have a long lifespan, and if they will be able to be recycled.
