It's definitely deformable, but I'm not sure how this unit prevents seepage, or even what they mean by that.
This is a folding lamp that can be angled to suit the area you want illuminated, while also conveniently fitting into a small shipping box.
The construction seems OK, although the power dissipation and plastic casing is a bit concerning for LED longevity.
The driver layout looks OK and is quite neat.

    A moth-proof light bulb. Now that's an innovative idea, but obviously not meant for the UK market because our moths don't eat light bulbs.

    And a power consumption of 50 watts! Should be bright enough to be visible from Mars.

    I just came for the seepage.

    Isn't the black band after the gold a tolerance I believe black was 1% in my day.

    I have a couple of these, was going to do a teardown but you saved me the trouble.
    Thank you, great video.

    That could have been a good design if it was the other way round, I mean if the leds were on the upper side, illuminating the ceiling.

    Seepage!

    really like your videos, super informative and actually really learned alot from them. Keep doing these reverse engineering video.

    My wife picked up a couple of these on Amazon for just a few dollars. I thought the same thing that you are saying.I ventilated them with my soldering iron. I haven't had a lick of trouble out of them and I will probably order more for my woodshop.

    Where does the hose connect to the Hopi to test the anti seepage capabilities?

    No FLIR footage to show the hotspots? Bring out your precious. No, the FLIR precious. XD

    I'm guessing "anti-seepage" means that it won't shimmer/glow when there is some current leakage though long switch wires.

    cink palculator 😀

    Have you tried Baidu or the like in place of Google?

    I did find a FYL9V that is used in a power supply adapter..

    Your screenshot is click bait. I thought it was a model of the Enterprise!

  17. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars GordieGii says:

    I think the "anti-seepage" is those two 510K resistors that keep it from flickering if there's a little current getting through (or around) the switch.
