I am of the opinion that not all are equal, that the quality varies and
reliability is not quite what they make out.
2 Years ago I fitted 1156/1157 led side/tail/brake ligts from Napa.
Nice and bright.
However first failure after less than 15 hours of running.
Second failure less than 40 hrs of running.
50% failure rate.
grrr !!

These are just old fashioned halogen sealed beams. They are as good as
H4 but use as much power. The idea with LED lights is to get at least
the same amount of light as with H4 halogen but using far less power.
