Finally Found A 48-SMD 12-Volt Panel
Yeah Yeah Yeah My aged eyesight ain't so hot. I need bright light. Until I tried this plate I might as well have been using a night light to see by. Since I am a law ignoring tax evading shopper th...

And that, senor, is the problem. Professional applications and expensive LEDs (lights) use adequate heatsinking and a 5-watt light is a 5-watt draw on the battery. I paid twenty bucks for a PAR38 Floodlight thatc"has 18 2-watt chips". 36-watts, right? They advertise 30-watts but actual consumption is TWENTY POINT EIGHT WATTS. Light ouput is pathetic. It is underdriven because a proper heat sink is expensive. TWO of these lights output around the same a one of my 30-watt LEDs.
And so it goes with 12-volt plate LEDs. They promise the moon and deliver squat. The substrate cannot handle more heat dissipation. So for a buck seventy-five delivered I found the top o the heap light ouput. MPJA is selling CPU heat sinks with integral fan for four bucks. Between those + 10-watt chips and these cheapo plates I fulfilled my low wattage requirements.
Yotta see what a HUNDRED WATT LED needs for a heatsink when driven at rated milliamps. The Chinese are WILDLY underdriving their chips because of the cost of proper heatsinking then lying and claiming the lamp delivers rated wattage. The result is pathetic. They lie about lumen output.
So a bright plate at a good cost caught my attention. Ought-to-be's versus Is' s conflict LED lighting
