 This is the affixed UL label from a product I just bought on Amazon. The QR code isn't a QR code....

 @e4530301 UL needs an API to make it easier for places like Amazon to verify claims. Not that they would bother. But it should be something that’s easy to do.

 Months ago I made a makeshift bench light from some high-CRI LED strips and a driver I found on Amazon. Stuck it to a 1x4 and hung it from the ceiling.

Then I built a nice electronics workbench, but the crappy light stayed on.

Today I started building a replacement. The LEDs are inside diffuser channels, the rows are further apart, so the light should be more even and diffuse over the bench. I think it’ll be nice.

Have some before & WIP pics. Excuse the messy bench.
