    Metal-case LED scrubber light safety

    As an electrical engineer (BSEE), people like me are sometimes asked to be expert witnesses in court cases about electrical safety liability. In the USA, electrical safety is tested, and accepted most readily in industry, by Underwriters Laboratory (UL). Unfortunately this testing is expensive...

    Yep Sunday was the day. No traffic on the 405, and (probably) less people to squeeze into at the show, although it was my first so I don't know for sure. Parking was $10 at the attached garage, on the roof. Scored a Macna shirt and a bottle of RN live copepods, and of course lots of MD stuff :)

    Metal-case LED scrubber light safety

    Having invented the waterfall scrubber design in 2008 (water flowing down a screen), we are fairly familiar with how the scrubber works. And how the lights work too.

    Metal-case LED scrubber light safety

    We at Santa Monica Filtration were the first to test and use these types lights on waterfall scrubbers in the year 2010, as a way of getting away from fluorescent bulbs. Here is a side-by-side test of LED vs CFL in 2011: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LKcib4YaoTc The LED lights at first were...

    Metal-case LED scrubber light safety

    The lights are typically used when people build or buy the waterfall scrubber design we invented in the year 2008. The light is a metal-case LED lighting fixture that is bolted on, and is typically made in China and sold online, but it could be made anywhere. It is designed for gardens and...
