LED popcorn
What happens when the series capacitor in a cheap 240V LED corn lamp shorts out and the LEDs get connected directly across 240V

Laser in the eye
The glare from LED road lanterns of the "lens panel" type, or LED lanterns without any optics at all

(Note : ONLY LEDs can be "Laser in the eye". HID with arctube in plain view is not "Laser in the eye". the glare levels are not the same - no matter what some members here that mindlessly copy paste everything i say paste under their pictures)



I dont consider HPS bad lighting

I dont consider CFL bad lighting, as long as used in sensible way (i.e. as retrofit to Incandescent or LED, but not in HID lanterns)

I have not yet come up with a name, but i need a name, for Chinese electronically ballasted Fluorescent lanterns, or Chinese lighting products in general

As soon as reading your comment here, I erased your said term from my picture , after seeing from it, that this insulted you, and that with this action, I copy and paste things that other said. I'm appologies if this caused you a distress.

ONLY LEDs? I see the vivid hatred for LEDs at that comment. I see laser in the eyes with HIDs too. There's a 400w HPS cobrahead at a walk path. Overkill and a glare bomb (laser in the eyes) for the job. A 70w CMH or its led equivalent is better suited. I'll upload that pic tomorrow once I get it into my PC.

Why I like LEDs on top of other lighting tech?
LEDs = Upgrade 95% of the applications. (That is if you avoid eBay's LEDs).


LED brainwash? No, people uses them cuz they work well for them.

You can legitimately call a glaring HID light a glare bomb, but there aren't HID arctubes where the arc is as concentrated (power per area of light emitter, as we see it when staring at it) as a LED chip. Bad optics of LEDs create glare levels i never seen before even when starting into a HID arctube....

Are you for serious? I have a flashlight (torch for outside the us) that's 1000 lumens and uses 3 high powered LEDs. They're glary sure, not disputing that. But by no mean laser in the eye powerful as a 400w+ arctube. Only way to get that is looking squarely in the center of the beam of the light.

Remind me to get that flashlight uploaded in LG soon.

The 400W+ arctube emits light in all directions. From a bare arc tube only a small part of it goes in your direction. From a lantern with reflector, if you are standing in the exact direction the light is aimed at, most of the light hitting your eyes comes from the reflector - which area is many times bigger than the arctube

The LED lens panel lanterns dont have reflectors, only array of lenses. The lenses direct the light in the intended direction with pretty high efficiency, but the emitting area from your point of view remains the chip dot you see through the lens - which is only a small and bright dot on the lens, not even the entire lens, and definitely not a big reflector. The intensity of light in this dot cannot be matched by a general purpose HID arctube even if it would be desired...



As of vivid hae for LEDs

There is one member which definitely has it. He copy pastes everything i say about LEDs (not limited to LEDs actually), when it is part of something i say with reasoning behind it, but he does not have the reasoning. Hate is his reasoning. He just pops up things i said in places they dont belong, on the way also extending them with personal insults to people who did nothing wrong other than buying and installing the lights.... This does no good, not to LEDs and not to the statements against them

Explicitly personally banning this member from copy pasting anything i say...Was attempted many times, but never worked. I only ever managed to make him stop quoting me as a source to his rants. I dont see a solution to this problem

I have a 100w green LED chip. Although I hear they aren't very efficient, and it probably has the brightness of a 70w MH lamp, it appears extremely bright. It is probably from all the light being focused out of one side, rather than omni-directionally.

The light from a flat chip is not particularly focussed. What i call "laser" happens when there is a lens over the LED, which focus WAY more light in the same direction, while the emitting area visible is not changed significantly
