What happened? I ordered some blue and red coated bulbs that faded in a few weeks, but they're just regular bulbs. Shipping was fast.

i got their 15 LED 7443 bulb...messed with my signals, they blinked really fast as if a bulb was busted. they said that a load simulator would fix it but i didn't get those instructions until after i ordered from them.
also it wasn't as bright as i expected them to be. ah well, good communication and fast shipping though. the stock bulbs are brighter than what i got. but this is just my experience with them.

I wonder if they lost longer than other aftermarket LEDs. I got a pair of the 194s and two of the five bulbs burnt out on one set and for some reason the other set didn't didn't work after the first week. Needless to say, both are not working now (3 weeks later)

That's good for regular bulbs, but we're talking about led. You can touch those all you want, since the diode is surrounded in plastic.
