When using an illuminated light switch to control lights, When the switch is open the neon bulb is across the open switch allowing a very small current draw across the load to illuminate the neon lamp in the switch. Using a incondecient or halogen bulb as the load would not present a problem, but now using a LED bulb that runs on a lower current to begin with, and a circuit to control the LEDs, and/or the LEDs of the bulb will experience a constant voltage with the switch open or closed.
QUESTION: Will this significantly reduce the life of the LED bulb ?
Thanks
