A look inside another 10W floodlight that is a very
different style to the others. This one has slightly stippled glass and a hinged front held shut by a catch like some metal halide floodlights.
This unit does meter out at 10W and is actually earthed. The driver is glued in as many are, but strangely has a two pin connector to the LED allowing easy changing of components.
The LED is mounted with a decent spread of heatsink compound, and is held in place by the seemingly standard two screws at diagonally opposing corners. There are also mounting holes for a higher power LED like the standard 20W format.
My only niggle with this light is that when the front has been hinged down it has caught the edge of the seal at the base and folded it over, meaning it is very slightly less watertight than it could have been.
Other than that, it's quite an attractive and functional light.
