There's lots and lots of replacement LED lamps out there on the market now, and their quality varies all over the map. Price does not appear to be a reliable qualifier in terms of quality, as I have tried cheap ones which were wonderful, as well as more expensive ones which quickly failed.

Fortunately, however, these are generally so inexpensive today that you can easily afford to experiment. Just try one and see how it strikes you.

If the LED's fail after a bit of use - in my experiences they will either fade or start to flicker - simply try another style.
