What is the lifespan of an LED lamp

Lifespan

Handy, those LED lamps in the box of the cash bargains at that blue-yellow Swedish furniture giant where you have just purchased a new hänglåmp. There must, of course, be a lamp in otherwise you have nothing to it. You know what, I buy it right then 5. Then I can replace all other light bulbs right away for this energy-efficient variant.
