You are right that local electricity might be in play. I've lived in the same house for 6 years and I've not had a single light fail. We replaced most bulbs when we moved in because they were mostly CFLs. It's been great. But I wouldn't put it past LED manufacturers, even name brand ones, from cheaping out on the bad power protections.
