LED\'s do burn out!
I'm not speaking of failure from over current either...
I have a SCSI enclosure that has a 10 candela led for each hard disk. They will fire whenever there is activity on the bus.
The LED for drive number two look significantly dimmer than the other LED's. I didn't really pay attention until yesterday when I noticed it wasn't firing at all!
Sure enough, the connectors are tight. I removed the plug going to LED1 for drive 1 and when plugged into drive 2 it fired! The friggin' LED burned out! It's about 1 1/2 years old. Never thought I would see this before.
FWIW!
