Funny thought those things are already: a small control unit plugs in to the outlet. On him a string of lights hanging from the white LEDs of KooPower. The end of the chain forms a European renewal in the back, a plug can be inserted. So can easily reach the apartment ... or maybe not (I'd read on) ...
For quick reader (tl; dr):
I do not trust the isolation of these lights and have both disposed of properly.
The price makes skeptical. The rubber grommets act on the housing edge slightly "used up". The mode selector switch is closed by a rubber stopper that the "Rauspopeln" not really escapes. After a milling operation, the housing is opened (though quite reluctantly). The structure of the board makes it clear: the LEDs are operated not isolated from the mains. The old lights (with light bulbs) were the but also not. So no problem if the insulation is reliable.
The strain relief (ie the mechanism to protect the cable before pulling it out) was dissolved here with hot glue. I would again see in the standard, but my abdominal pain are not less!
And here the rabbit is buried in hot glue: two devices showed an LED (ie one of two lights) this "isolation" - a messy soldering is expressed through what should isolate. At this "dotting" is now touchable to the mains voltage. For me there is no discussion at this point (this is an expression of opinion!): The test was discontinued and transported all the parts for electronic scrap.
Again for safety: I was the isolation problem seen only in a LED (at one of two lights).
A detailed pictorial review can be found on my blog (search engine with the terms: "Zero Brain fear koopower" feed).
At The End:
Product evaluation are not rewarding hobby (even blog posts to illustrate not).
The only motivation is, the positive reviews (or constructive reviews) at the end of the month.
