They used to grow hundred of thousands of acres of oranges and grapfruits in even the northern half of Florida for many decades. However, those groves are about all gone now...

The lumen figure quoted for that $15 LED module is unrealistic.
The power consumption of the device from the description is 0.25 amps at 12.8V, or 3.2 watts. Even if you assume that the electronics are 100% efficient (impossible), that would mean they are getting 164 lumens per watt. They should apply for a Nobel prize.
A more realistic figure would be around 80 to 100 lumens per watt, and a efficiency of about 95% for the driver, giving a possible lumen output of around 300 lumens. The modules I am using consume double the power and are conservatively rated at 450 lumens each when inside the translucent housing(as you pointed out I am using two). They probably are more like 500 to 600 lumens with the clear bezel I got from camping world.
