I just tracked down a new birdie on 160m to an LED spotlight replacement
bulb I picked up in Dayton.  It is similar to the middle one at:
http://pyfled.en.alibaba.com/product/287935493-209612596/3W_high_power_led_s
pot_lighting.html
but with a slightly shorter white spacer.  It must have a switching
regulator in it to put out the hash that I measured off it.  It is listed as
50w and works over a voltage range of 85-265VAC.  One similar product was
listed as having a constant current regulator which probably accounts for
the wide voltage range and the hash it was making.  The box is a no-name box
with the only markings being a Made in China sticker and JB-P50W-A3x1W
AC85-265V (JB may be cut off UB).
