The light bulbs are impossible to get except through L&M's website at a premium cost for the light bulb and shipping.
Poor life span of the light bulb. The light bulb did not last a season, running at the spec'd 13Watts for less than 50 hours of use.
I would definitely look elsewhere than L&M. It does not matter how nice and bright a light is, if you can't get replacement bulbs easily, if they don't last, and if the holder keeps going out of adjustment.
Thanks. As it turns out, L&M overvolts their bulbs, thereby shortening the life. Jet Lite makes a much more powerful bulb, that is why it is so much brighter, and more efficient, and lasts for many seasons.
