Yes, nice write up for sure! I've bought lots of LEDs on eBay. They have been pretty good except for the 194 equivalent. Those small SMD bulbs just don't do well with vibrations. Last batch I bought were super white SMD bulbs and I put them in my landscape lights. They have been working very well since I installed them in May. I have more of these bulbs and plan on putting some in my instrument cluster, but my guess is they won't last long before they start flickering.
i used to put some of my "reject" 194 size led's in my outdoor lights. they worked great & lasted forever, probably because they were getting 12v AC and only being lit half the time.
