It’s not about money, or the cost of how cheap a bulb is.There’s just those of us out there, including myself, that love the challenge of being able to fix anything. I thought it was very interesting.

[@JLarryButler]

Instead of cutting the end of a battery, would putting a drop of solder work as well ?

[@creationholic101]

okay, that's idea number 2

[@fuloplehel]

Removing the led actually increase the voltage on the remaining ones and it is a short term solution. So I would go with the third method, to replacing with a good one. But when the first led is gone, the electronic regulator is at the end of life, so a new bulb is the best solution.

[@creationholic101]

Yes, I agree with you, but it will be useful when you haven't bought a new device yet

[@fuloplehel]

@@creationholic101 That's true, but I always have a box of this bulbs at home. I take the bad ones to recycling and that's it. For expensive worklights I do the repair, by replacing the bad leds, and other components if I have to.

You have no way of knowing that. If there is no galvanic isolation, and I highly doubt there is, then it could be at mains potential!

[@douglasflores1462]

@@philipridout2274 Almost all led lights work with 5V, and some of them with 12VDC, the high voltage AC (110 or 220), reach up to the small transformer that is hidden on the other side of the led board.

Why go to all of those troubles, with the price of new one is not worth it…

[@gezeers]

Watched this vlog and am well impressed on how to fix an LED blub, but most people would buy a new blub and the ones who repair I hope they know what they are getting up to. The first video I was very surprised that you used insulating tape on the tweezers which is okay but someone who doesn't have that tape could substitute for another tape and could get a shock. But again it's only a few who thinks they know what they are doing and gets in a right pickle.😊

[@creationholic101]

Thank you for sharing your feedback. Have a good day!

[@philipridout2274]

This is so unsafe. Rubber shoes wont do anything if another party of your body is touching something conductive. They also won't save you if you touch live and neutral at the same time! Also wrapping tweezers in electrical tape isn't that safe, what if you miss a little bit, or your fingers slip down?

[@creationholic101]

Normally, these bulbs already have a voltage conversion circuit, so the output voltage of the LED bulb is quite safe. To be safer, I still equip it with protective equipment.

[@philipridout2274]

@@creationholic101 normally? As long as there's no galvanic isolation you're still exposed to mains potential. (I should imagine that any with a transformer would be more expensive, if not prohibitively) irrc, the cheapest ones use capacitive reactance to reduce the current. Which makes them acceptable to transients which is probably why you have a dead L.E.D. My problem with this video is it makes it all too easy for people with little experience to attempt this and put themselves at danger of death.

1. Изолента со временем скорее всего отвалится из-за высокой температуры внутри лампочки. 2. Нормальный способ - проверен лично. 3. Старую термопасту удалил, а новую не нанёс - плата будет хуже охлаждаться. 4. Далеко не все лампочки ломаются таким образом, соответственно их так не починить.

[@dareko3745]

Both your LED bulb fixes are a mistake. Attaching a AA battery end cap with tape will set the tape on fire and possibly cause a house fire or at least the tape will burn away and it will no longer be holding the cap in place. (Are you aware of how HOT those little LEDs get?). Not to mention that you are destroying a AA battery that contains highly TOXIC chemicals that you may be getting on your hands... On your second bulb fix you scraped off heat transfer paste but you failed to reapply a new layer of the stuff when you reassembled the board to the aluminum heat sink. So what will happen is in a short, time the board will get over heated and either start a fire or burn out one of the LEDs. The white thermal paste is very important as it helps transfer the heat to the block of aluminum that the board is attached to. And I believe that the reason that a LED burned up is that not enough of the paste was put on in the first place, as everyone should have noticed how little of it you managed to scrape off.. There should have been quite a bit more applied.. and finally using a clothing iron to do flow soldering ? I'm not even gonna go there, that was so funny! Have a great day! I am not picking on you, just pointing out your mistakes in the hope that you fix them so as not to miss lead people...

[@dareko3745]

After reading most of the replys from people let me sum up what should be done. SHORT & SWEET: Not taking into consideration whether it is worth fixing the bulbs or not. The LEDs that are dead should be replaced, and NOT jumped out. The board, if it can be removed should be and a generous portion of high quality heat transfer paste should be applied. As a final upgrade, if safely possible you can try to drill a few holes in the end of the plastic cover/diffuser that gets glued over the lamp assembly. This may give some extra ventilation to keep the lamp cooler. Because as we see, to save money, and to make the bulbs burn out faster so that you buy more. The manufacturer does NOT put on enough of the heat transfer paste to make it fully serve its' purpose. And the whole design of the bulb does not try to dissipate the high temperatures that tend to destroy electronic components.
