I am not sure
how you
could "mess up" a LED (light emitting diode) as it is a
diode and doesn't have a filament like a light bulb does. In my past experience with LED flashlights, the switch breaks, or the contacts for the battery break long before the LED burns out, as I understand it, even if we left our phones plugged in, and the LED on full time, the phone would either wear out, or become obsolete before the LED burns out, as the expected lifespan for an LED is aprox. 100,000 hours, before losing up to 20% of its brightness, longer to lose more and they die by simply getting dimmer over time, not becoming nonfunctional, rather too dim to see. IS there something about the LED in the mogul I don't know about, that makes it sensitive or weak?
