Yep, I spend $395 aud on a brand new 27w LED lantern from the manufacturer, in the exact specs that I wanted. They are used all around me in rural areas, mine is species exactly the same as those.

Yup, they still sell these. I bought one yesterday. Haven't tested it as it's a Christmas present for my Dad.

@NeXe Lights Honestly 200 dollars for a brand new modern off the factory line light is not completely unreasonable in this day and age... 300 is pushing it a little. I might consider adding an LED of my spec to my collection at some point. 2200K LED street light would be fun. 1050 drive current of course...... we don't run weak lights around here  :lol:

Obviously, it would depend on the exact model. But what I know is that the city of Detroit spent $3,900,000 on 25,000 Leotek LED streetlights, which comes out to $156 per streetlight. But that is on a bulk purchase. Although you could expect most models to cost anywhere from $150-$300 when bought individually.

This is the most similar I could find to the configuration you want. https://ebay.us/m/hnCzbj

Curious If any of you have ordered LED street lights from electrical distributors or online, and how much they cost you? I was kinda curious how much a Leotek GC2-96N-MV-WW-5-GY-1050-FDC or GC2-96N-MV-22K-5-GY-1050-FDC. would cost. As these are pretty nice in the installations I have seen around. by far the least glary and most pleasant light colors. If it comes down to it I will go physically retrieve a price estimate from the local distributor but I am curious of your experiences.

My house has receptacles for Christmas lights up under the gable ends controlled by a timer.  My goal is to run colored icicle lights up and down the gable ends.  The roof of the covered porch would be framed with clear C9 bulbs.  Additionally, I'd love to wrap a spruce tree in colored C9s.

I currently have Celebrations Professional LED strings strung along the gable ends.  At the time I put them up, I could only find LED icicle strings in short lengths.  I finally found their Classic icicle strings in 20-foot lengths.  The weather hasn't been good for hanging outdoor Christmas lights, so it will probably have to wait until Summer to get done.  I did find a 50-foot string that uses actual C9 bulbs, and it came with clear LEDs.  I was able to get that hung up, and I'm really happy with how it turned out.  Only issue is the C9 string has a polarized plug while the pass-through outlet on the gable string is not polarized, so I had to use another extension cord to power the C9s.  I'll probably put in a dedicated outlet for them, possibly using them as patio lights in the off season.
