Turn night into day…..LITERALLY!

Put anything here that's badly designed/made, failed, catastrophically exploded or just an epic fail in a general sort of way.

Turn night into day…..LITERALLY!

Postby AngryHorse » Sat Dec 21, 2024 3:09 pm

So as I took Jo and our Carly to work this morning I pass British Salt in our town, now a few years ago they had mostly the Mk 1 Thorn Area flood dotted about on the yard running 250 watt SON, today it’s double the amount of THE most powerful LED floods they could have bought! ;shock
I noticed all the houses across from them, (some 500+ metres away), were completely whitewashed in a 4000K artificial sun!
I’m surprised people haven’t complained!, there’s also a new transport/storage yard next to Jo’s work, (I’m sat by it now as I write this), with 12 to 15 metre columns in the yard donning 4 equally large LED floods! ;what

What’s this obsession today with drowning every night area in way overpowering LED floods?
Just because they’re efficient, doesn’t necessarily mean they have to look like a collapsing star when lit at night!

Absolutely ridiculous ;wall

What is the wattage of the current LED floodlights?
Have you a picture of this area?

No, don’t have a picture but the floods must be 300+? Totally over lit for the area?

I've seen 400W LED floodlights at Tiberias.
