I’ve been playing with different reversing lamp bulbs because the incandescent one the car came with was pants.
I had a couple left over from Niseko experiments (two in each pack but only one used), and the best one of those went in a month ago. A few days ago it failed while I was playing with reversing camera markers. I think it overheated from being on for too long, and shut down permanently. But its brother in the Niseko lasted a couple of years.
So I bought another pair of LEDs, slightly smaller too. The new LED in the car is much brighter! And hotter, given enough time. Even though the same make (Aglint) as the failed one, the only real worry I have (given its light intermittent usage) is it might drop out of the socket!
