30W LED spotlight for $11 shipped

[Barnabybear]

Sooo.. the 200W lights are ridiculously bright. Not exactly sure what I'm going to do with them yet. Was thinking either blinders or tearing into one and seeing if I could turn it into a strobe. More than likely just an epoxy blob inside so don't have my hopes high.

Hi, you could use a WS2811 to drive a triac via a MOC3023 and switch the mains to the flood.

My guess is that you probably won't even be able to get inside--as the glass is often glued to the housing (and those clips don't look easily-removable).

The clips were easy to pry off, but unfortunately you were correct about the glass being glued to the housing. It's going to stay sealed up.

I was thinking of something like that, may give it a shot. Thanks!

You can buy WS2811 30W LED's from China for <$20, although these guys are by no means IP65. You will have to come up with that yourself (but at least you don't have to figure out the WS2811 part):
