I got these ATOPLITE side markers off of Amazon for 38.90 and they work great and they are bright, so far no issues.

Odd. I tried sending JW a PM but their message storage is full. Read the replies above. Are they still active on here?
Still haven't got my replacement set. Waste of money, but I guess you live and learn.

My replacement is supposed to be here this Friday. Originally contacted JW in October I think (been a while). Seems like they are trickling them out as they get the parts from overseas.

Eh I'd rather not do the work twice. I think diode Dynamics will have a more reliable product. Though they are expensive

I ended up getting a set from Diode Dynamics. When I saw the burn mark when I took the light out, I didn't want to take the chance with the replacement set. If I ever get them, I will be selling them.

Good to know.
I realized long ago cheap stuff will break when it comes to cars. Multiply that factor by 5 for electronics lol.

Glad I read the end of this thread

Same here.

The one market that has an issue just has 1 or 2 LEDs out at the end. The other 3 markers seem to be OK right now. If at least 1 of the other 3 have an issue, I will post up an update and dump them all together.

I've been trying to get a replacement since September. Got a response in early December that they were still out of stock, still waiting. Might just go another route...Sad, I really liked them when they worked.

I had one get really dim over the weekend and no reply back on a way to purchase a new one. All the LEDs light up just really dim, anyone have an idea what's wrong?

In the 10 months I’ve had a set one has had to be replaced two times. That’s three markers in that time span with 2 months wait between faulty units. To make a long story short they only last a few hours and start burning up. You’ll end up riding around town with burnt LEDs more than with all of the markers fully lit. Look elsewhere and let us know what you went with. I’ll do the same once I trash these.

I did get my one replacement marker at the end of January. We will see how long everything lasts.

It is very, very, very likely these are made in China (I didn't check the molding) and we all know what is going on in the world today (and still in China, despite what the numbers say).
