Temu 100W LED floodlight is exactly what you'd expect.....

It's probably just as well this light isn't actually a 100W floodlight, since the basic heatsinking would result in very short LED lifespan. The actual power is more realistic for the size of LED and the heatsink. The LED panels were mounted with a bead of silicone down each side and a grid of heatsink compound underneath.

Note that in common with many grey import LED floodlights, the earth wire is not connected internally, so these lights pose a shock hazard if the circuitry fails or water buildup occurs internally.

If you accept it for what it is and add the earthing yourself then it's actually a fairly useful light.

The internal circuitry is novel in the way it differs from other floodlights, with the driver circuitry on a separate PCB instead of on the same module as the LEDs.

Temu have now removed the light from sale due to the safety issue. They seem much more proactive than other online platforms in this regard.

Quick shout-out for my friend Joe, who has an excellent technical YouTube channel where he records himself doing heating system installations and repairs. His videos will help launch many young Americans into a lifelong career.
He's going through a very rough time due to his son Logan's (successful) cancer treatment, and the associated medical bills.

If you watch to the end you'll see he's close to the edge and really needs support. If you can spare a few dollars he'd really appreciate it right now:-
