Maxspect Razor, what would you do ?

So recently I started noticing a color shift in my coral. Long story short. It would appear that all my 410 leds in this fixture are burnt out. I have had this fixture 160 watt since they came out, so what / can I do. is it worth it to replace the pucks or should I just break down and buy a new fixture. Thanks

If you can and are doing it yourself it might be worthwhile. I have 2 x 70w razors and have had 2 issues with one of them in less than 6 months from buying. I have been frustrated with Coralvue customer service and am going to have to change my whole system because of it.

How long have you had this fixture?

That makes me wonder if leds really last as long as they say....really sucks to pay expecting it to pay off long term...and have them fail

For the cost of the upgrade led pads I would just do that.

It's likely the LED driver board which Coral Vue carries the parts for. I would open it up first as it may just be a burnt wire leading to the driver board or a burnt trace on the driver board in which case it would be easily fixable if you are handy with a solder iron.
