LED Lifespan: Light Emitting Diode MTBF Lifetime ...
The LED lifetime or LED lifespan is the time to when the light output falls to a given level. The LED life expectancy may be quoted in the format L70 or L50, for the life to when the light output falls to 70% or 50% of the original value respectively. The LED lifetime, the LED operational life is generally defined in the following terms:
