Blue RGB led....."breaks the fastest?

ItzUknown

A friend of mine told me that blue rgb led worns out faster . I want to make sure that , that is not the case because my pc is set to blue on some components and on green on the rest of them and I want to make sure that there is not problem with them and that I wont make any of them light out, break or just not work anymore.

 

Thanks in advance !!!

It actually does. Blue LEDs were not commercially viable until the early 1990's, while red LEDs were available well before then. This is due to the much shorter wavelength of blue light, and requires a different manufacturing process. Whether this has a significant impact on the lifespan on modern LEDs is unknown to me, but there is a scientific basis for this claim.

But for real, no. The color doesn't affect the lifespan. Maybe the brightness of the light itself but not the color.

He may have had one bad experience with blue LEDs and now he says that.

Ok thank you...... I asked him for real and he told me that his motherboard had some RGB who "died" and he had them set to blue ......sooooo yeah....lol.....
