http://www.eda-on.ca/eda/edaweb.nsf/(W-PubsByYear)/7749C7E9C01799D585256D3A0070E787 There are so many laws and bylaws I don't think we can be sure what's a "crime" anymore. If I wanted to grow my own vegetables and use lots of power to do it, even though I'm not doing anything illegal, some busybody will get involved. No good deed goes unpunished. :) What I want to know is are the LEDs bright enough? What LED replaces a 60 watt ILB?
