I'm looking for basic 50w/120v warm white outdoor lights. There are TONS of the Chinese type in various qualities on Amazon and Ebay, but I have only found 1 light that is even using a Bridgelux chip (LED Waves- Owl Outdoor Wall Pack). Are there others? I know I can build something, but looking for commercially available.
I'm in some-what of a competition with a couple other guys for who can provide the best light for the price. Basic generic testing with temp probe and a lux meter at various distances and angles. Criteria for lights are they have to be commercially available (i.e. no buying Chinese lights and replacing chips/drivers), WARM white defined as 2900-3300K, and 120vac input power. Current leader is a Chinese light for $95 from a US seller, so there is definitely room for improvement. However, I don't think the $140 price tag on the LED Waves unit is going to cut it. I have one on order as my round 2 contestant already, but need another entry. Plus contestants for rounds 3, 4, ... Any help appreciated.
