Expected LED Lifespan

In the unlikely event that your CHAUVET® product may require service, please contact CHAUVET® Technical Support.

LEDs gradually decline in brightness over time, mostly because of heat. Packaged in clusters, LEDs exhibit higher operating temperatures than in ideal, single LED conditions. For this reason, using clustered LEDs at their fullest intensity significantly reduces the LEDs’ lifespan. Under normal conditions, this lifespan can be of 40,000 to 50,000 hours. If extending this lifespan is vital, lower the operational temperature by improving the fixture’s ventilation and reducing the external temperature. In addition, limiting the overall projection intensity may also help to extend the LEDs’ lifespan.
