I like the LED street lights being sold on eBay. They seem to be evolving fast (I guess it's a huge market) and while the reliability of the early units is an unknown variable, they are generally quite serviceable, although at this cost it's cheaper to just replace a whole light.
This one caught my attention because it is so stylish. I will admit I was surprised at the size though. It's smaller than expected, although fully functional. The lens is glass and seems to be purpose made to give a good road-shaped coverage.
It would be quite interesting to put a coloured LED in this unit. Maybe even one of the nice red/blue mix grow light LEDs.
The listing I bought this one from was:-

    Seems like a nice light. I wonder if it would be difficult or practical to convert it to a solar unit. I would be interested if someone can direct me to a similar diy video…

    If Google Maps had night view, finding Clive's house would be easy, just look for that warm white glow.

    I went back to watch this, because mine just failed after a year of constant outdoor use (on a photocell). Better to watch Clive pull it apart to see what style COB I need to order than climbing a ladder. 😀
