Random street light conversion.
Added 2017-04-07 02:25:55 +0000 UTCI thought it would be quite fun to convert a street light to a grow light. Not because I actually want to grow any plants, but because it's a nice colour. This light is from Ynaan on eBay, but is the 20W version of the light as opposed to the 30W version I already looked at. I was expecting the cases to be the same, but the 20W version is actually slightly bigger and has a better gear-tray cover.
The light also has a very odd style of LED that I hadn't come across before. Basically a two part version of the classic power LED made with standard PCB materials.

I wonder what the colour rendering is like. I miss my childhood days when the streets were lit with mercury vapour lamps as I remember finding it fascinating to watch them warm up, starting off with a dim greenish blue glow. They've long been phased out for LPS and now a few villages near me are gradually switching to white LED. If I ever come across a street lit up pink, I'll know where they got the bright idea. =)
