Heavy ceramic substrate LED lamp
Added 2023-03-02 05:40:34 +0000 UTCAn odd find on eBay. It's a lamp that uses a thick and heavy ceramic PCB for the LEDs to suck the heat away from them quickly for convection air cooling.
It was unrealistically cheap for what it is, making me wonder if it was a listing error or stock being dumped. But further examination of the listings from the same seller suggest that they are encouraging sales for eBay visibility and then nudging the prices up based on demand.
Here's a link to the sellers UK eBay shop, noting that they may have other shops on eBay's other country specific sites. These lamps are 220-240V models. They may do 120V versions too.

I also placed a snipe on an auction for an RGB floodlight with lots of smaller ceramic modules, won it at a low price and then TWO arrived!
I've ordered a few other variants for exploration.
If you're in the UK and want some then buy them now before the prices get jacked up.

So I offered £16 for 2 of the 4 cell RGB floods, they accepted and 4 arrived! For the cost they are pretty good.
