The early CREE bulbs last a long time - out of the 30 or so of those I bought, I've lost two. One to a combination of age and a severe cold snap last winter, and another to (for these bulbs) infant mortality. That was right as they came out better than a decade ago.

The newer ones are just shit grade. They don't last regardless.

This article seems to be more of a rant about IOT devices.

Except the older Cree bulbs have some flicker (maybe even newer ones).

I have noticed that on some of the gen1 units I have. Not going to complain, they're well over 10 years old.
