This is one of the simplest LED lamps I've ever seen. It has a circuit board inside that has the incoming Supply going to a bridge ranked far. two current limiting resistors and then four LEDs each with six chips each. And that is it.
There's no smoothing, that's why there's just a tiny little bit of Shimmer.
Just how cheap can you get?
I bet it will last the longest !No capacitors nothing to short and fail over time !
Sorry, I just realised that by giving you a thumbs up, I broke your 555 and made it a 556 😊
For a moment I thought that you found oversized components to play with. I was excited!
The efficiency has to be terrible! I assume about 18V at each LED and 240VAC supply. That means current of 5.6mA, so LED power of 0.4W and 0.94W of resistor heat. So only 30% of power goes to the LEDs…
Very minimal. Nice.
Is the date when your Patreons(HURRAH !!!) got this video?
A SMD smoothing capacitor between the outcome and it would shimmer less?
So frustrating to have a "short" that is directly lifted from a current video that I've just watched. What is the point?
I think this resistors make alot of heat, right?
Got to wonder they didn't double the resistor value, and cut even more cost.
Wow. Very basic but it works.
