The company doesn't exist any more so you can't get stock parts. There are ways around this. They used 1 w LED not 3 or 5w like current fixtures. They Had thermal control issues that's why the LEDs cook and burn out. Some also had driver issues. They were the first. Other manufacturers have learned from there mistakes.

Leave it. Waste of money. Replacing stuff or getting it fixed will be PITA.

I own an I5 series, the LEDs are 4watt luxeon rebels, in my opinion a very nice fixture. This series was made in America, and as far as I'm concerned a solid fixture. I have had no issues with mine, I only wish I could find another exactly the same.
