Waterproof COB outdoor light
Added 2020-10-26 03:26:26 +0000 UTCI'm not sure I'd actually use this outdoors as implied by the listing. It's a wall light that projects a wash of light upwards and downwards, that can be shaped by built-in barn doors. (As used for beam shaping in television and film.)

The design is interesting, but the use of specialist COBs and the way they are mounted, makes this yet another disposable light that involves wiring to replace.

Cool! I kinda like that lamp. I never knew they were called barn doors. They're kinda cliché as stage light thing.

2020-10-26 12:36:44 +0000 UTCI forgot to do my "Shhh - it's confidential!" bit. I guess maybe they issue the same datasheets before putting them out for open viewing with the same text printed across it.

2020-10-26 06:32:26 +0000 UTCArchitectural stuff. Not really my thing unless it's a big landmark that needs illuminated.

2020-10-26 05:03:40 +0000 UTCA couple of servos controlling the doors and you could make a cool lighting effect.

2020-10-26 04:19:29 +0000 UTCThe light is mounted in the middle of the wall and light shines up and down accenting the wall...

2020-10-26 04:07:43 +0000 UTCWhy would you want light pointing up? That part doesn't make sense to me.
