This is the first video filmed at a new bench designed for larger objects. Lighting is still at the experimental stage and an attempt to use a Chromecast dongle and high resolution monitor to keep an eye on where I was in frame and whether things were in focus, went horribly wrong when something couldn't keep up and it ended up glitching the video being filmed. It gets a bit jumpy in bits.
This is a rather stylish Holophane street light that can either mount on the top of a pole or on a side arm. It's pretty standard for modern city-grade street lights in that it has a light sensor, a programmable LED driver and a modular system of LED panels that connect in series to the desired power rating.
This one has an auxiliary input for pre-programmed functions and also the facility for a Dali network connection.
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.

    I’ve only seen LED street lights in certain areas of Clarkesville City, which is the place of where I live in and possibly Nashville and all the other places, but this is a kind of a street light that we would probably see continue to grow

    I love your street light videos can you do some high pressure sodium street lights

    Clive, I have some Osram LED drivers with some Led modules if you would be interested in getting them. Let me know.

    Personally i think SOX/LPS will always be much better

    Screen pinting heat compound probably makes a lot of sense as standard SMT production processes already screen print solder onto the boards. Replacing the solder with heat compound is probably a fairly easy process.

    My local city recently upgraded to LED streetlights while performing major road work near my house.
    However several of the LED units have gone straight blue. According to the news this was a chemistry defect in several of the diodes, and in fact on one panel can have a mix of blue and white, and other lights one panel will be blue and another white.

    It's a really unnerving sensation walking under one of these malfunctioning lights, and it gives me the sensation that it's throwing off large amounts of UV, though I've never tested that theory.

    Ugly but I would happily own one 😂. Often referred to as the Sh**eMax 🤣. Great video. You should do one video to a non modular LED such as a Philips Luma.

    I usually see these lanterns every time my dad drops me off to school.
