And from the what can go wrong usually does dept:

While stocking and cleaning up the trailer for our eclipse trip, one of the LED arrays in the kitchen began blinking on and off. Not strobing, but off a few seconds, back on a few seconds, then off for a while.

I pulled the offending bulb out, and since these are 921 bases I bent the little wires out so they would make better contact. Plugged it back in. So far, OK, but it had been on for a couple of hours before the blinking started before.

So then I got online and ordered a few spares.

I still have some of those awful, harsh-dim-blue LEDs in my reading spotlights, so those will get upgraded, too.
