I like the chunkiness of these lights and the large internal heatsink. So I bought one to test and take to bits.
One moment please…

hey, i noticed a slight flaw, instead of 12÷50 its 12÷54, the actual current per pair is 111mA
I had two fail in the same fixture at once. Of course, "Made in China". Rebranded, imported, and overpriced. I have yet to pull them apart and see the cause of failure. I doubt the LEDs are at fault.
That light is a monster
price is very important. most of people think Chinese Product is cheap and low quality. That dependson how much you want to pay.
I need to get myself a super high lumen outdoor led light my yard looks like death well let's see how these big box stores go with 100watt lights or 1600 lumen ones
maybe chinese watts are smaller than the ones in the rest of the world, hence the 24 watts vs 12 watts in the rest of the world 😀
Feel free to call me dumb, but if that has the edison screw connector, maybe it's meant to run at 110/24W running at 220, would it still pull 24w or would it pull 12?
I thought when a seller sells a bulb or lamp like this the wattage was related to its equal in a convertional blub or lamp.
Is that not the case?
I mean does this output an amount of light that a 24w light bulb would put out?
Yeah it doesn't pull 24 watts it's 24 watts equivalent. Cfls are the same way.
why is there heat from LEDs? I've a 50W flood LED and while one can hold it such is hotter than I'd imagine. 10W flood LED only slightly warm but with same cooling fins as the 50W
You mentioned this lamp has a SMPS or rather a buck regulator power supply, instead of a capacitive dropper. I guess the latter can only supply up to a certain amount of power. How do the capacitive dropper circuits compare to SMPS in terms of efficiency? And how safe are they comparing to a SMPS, since they are not fused and there is no mains isolation?
interesting they have standardised at exaggerating wattage by 2 times, shame that flashlight lumens or battery cell capacity doesn't have such a reliable way to determine!
