Interesting to note that the offending units were several years old. I have seen no reports of newer Feit unit being problematic. For that reason I would not avoid Feit out of hand.
Manufacturers change designs all the time so what was OK this month may not be the next. But I agree that testing before installation is wise. I do it myself.
