This odd little light was suggested by Stephen Eyles. It's basically a low power floodlight that projects a wash of uneven colour onto a wall or other surface.
The insides are very simple and can be modified if desired with either a coloured LED or custom filter. The adhesive on the lens came off well with isopropanol without damaging the plastic.
The LED driver chip has two numbers on it:- 7611ASH and KL1A23B I think it may be one of those "for manufacturers only" chips. But it's probably similar to a classic Brightpower chip.
To find these lights on eBay use the keywords "LED sunset light".
Price guide £€$10-15. Some are USB powered and some mains powered. The USB ones may have a simple resistor current limiter on the same PCB as the LED.
If you enjoy these videos you can help support the channel with a dollar for coffee, cookies and random gadgets for disassembly at:-

This also keeps the channel independent of YouTube's advertising algorithms allowing it to be a bit more dangerous and naughty.

So the filter is a dichroic film over an orange gel?
Saya dari indonesia,lampu saya sama identik seperti yang ada di vidio,dan lampu saya rusak berkedip kedip,bagaimana cara memperbaikinya?sepanjang vidio saya bingung karena tidak ada terjemahan untuk saya pahami:)
Tolong buatkan vidio memperbaikinya ,terimakasih
My guy – the intelligent technical breakdown we all want to see
this video is so cool! it gave me lots of ideas on how to convert regular lamps, like i wanted to paint the glass cover of my halogen floor lamp with glass paint but im thinking this film would be much cooler and easier (for me anyways its been shockingly hard to find heat resistant paint i'm so paranoid of the glass exploding while the lamp heats up)
Thanks for the teardown. We have the version with the thin stalk, and honestly, we are quite happy for it for the low price. The dichroic effect when turned off actually looks nice and a bit mysterious from the outside.
that the color mixed LOL like
the camera filter.
Thanks for making this teardown. I'm on my way to making my own sunset projector. Made me see whats going on inside it. Good job!
I've got one of these now with two LEDs in, an inner (white?) one and a ring of (RGB?) halo LEDs around it, so obviously they're evolving!
THANK GOD FOR THIS EBAY CRAP!!!!!
That could form the basis of an NBTV mechanical television with the addition of a suitable Nipkow disk.
I was wondering how the ring effect was made! It was that bit of yellow LED that wraps around the film! Thanks for making the vid!
the film used, what kind of film?
what is the name of this type of lens? (I'm Brazilian, and I didn't understand what kind of lens this is)
Bear with me… *bears*
Can you convert watts to lumens. I notice light bulbs quote lumens with low watts. An old light bulb might say 60w but what would be the equivalent lumens.
Bought a garden rgb spot last year. Modded it with an esp8266 and esphome. No i can use it with wifi instead of ir remote 🙂
Have some dichromic lampshades here that are gold & crumpled for that Nasa space insulator look. Very effective:)
Where can I buy just the different color films for the light?
