Fodstar 11 Posted October 11, 2018 Report Share Posted October 11, 2018 The company that marketed the original Really BIG Lights appears to have gone out of business. At least one company is making battery-powered knock offs (available at Home Depot). Has anyone seen Edison plug knock offs being offered anywhere? Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites

Rich in Las Vegas 30 Posted October 15, 2018 Report Share Posted October 15, 2018 Someone mentioned the older version of this light which was lit by a C9 bulb so it didn't require batteries. I came across a couple of them that I bought used sometime in 2017. I run most of my lights on 12V DC with LEDs so here is a picture of the light opened to show how it was done. It's probably the cheapest conversion possible since a 300 reel of SMD 5630 LEDs ordered from China recently was $3.50 (non-waterproof). It has 12 LEDs wound around a plastic tube for a total of 1.2W and 600 lumens. If I were modifying it today, I might use a 1.5W G4 24 LED bulb because it is simpler to modify and the bulb and socket together are about 32 cents when you buy them in packages of 10 from China. I almost had a half dozen more from my local Goodwill outlet store recently but somebody piles something heavy on top and smashed all of the globes. It would have been a good find otherwise.
