LED Headlight bulb issue

[BigGuy MDU]

I have a 2024 Silverado 1500 WT.  A few months ago I installed both high and low beam Sealight led bulbs.  I've run the same bulbs in my last 4 trucks with great results.  The light output was always amazing and never had an issue with them flickering or burning out.  A few weeks ago, I started to notice the lights slowly going dim and then getting brighter constantly while driving.   Monday it was really bad and the passenger low beam completely died and then came back to life about 10 minutes later but the flickering continued.   I ended up pulling them all out and went back to the halogen and everything is fine again. 

 

Now from day one the led bulbs were never as bright as I had hoped for or even close to my previous bulbs of the same brand.  My last truck was a 21 silverado and I couldn't have been happier with them.

 

Anyone else experience a similar issue after swapping bulbs?  I know the manual states not to swap out the halogen for led.  Maybe there actually is a reason for it? Maybe I got a bad set of bulbs?  

 

Just curious....

I have used Sealight bulbs before and they worked OK. On my latest trucks 21 and 2023 Trail Boss Customs I switched over to Lasfit Pros. Now these LEDs are double or maybe triple the price of Sealights but these are my headlights and they have to work. The Lasfits use internal cooling fluid and integral fans so they are much more durable and more expensive. I am not trying to sell you on Lasfits but I am sure they would work great in your 24 Custom. Just my opinion. Got mine on sale on Amazon.

I've heard of them, just never considered them because up to this point I never had an issue with the cheaper option.  Thanks for the information, I'll look into them.
