I wonder why.

Were I making such superior LEDs, I'd market the living shit out of it, including lifetime warranties and public demonstrations of quality and whatever. If you can't ensure recurring sales by making the product shitty (like most companies do), you need to grow very fast to compensate. Once such a brand reaches high enough trust level, it should not die without making you FU money.

If anyone here is thinking about starting a company making high-quality, lifetime, user-serviceable stuff with well-defined lifecycle from purchace, through repair until eventual recycling / scrapping for parts, please do so; I'll happily put you next to SpaceX and Tesla on the "list of companies I'm an active fanboy of" list.

If you wanted the LED tech, you'd need to contact the parent UK company. See if FutureLED is still in operation, they have all my developed IP.
