inside a linear LED light with Samsung LEDs.

This seems to be a very common style of linear light as an alternative to traditional fluorescent fixtures. The construction is incredibly minimalist with a universal plastic extrusion that manages to incorporate the guides for retaining the aluminium LED strip, the solid white reflector and the translucent diffuser all in one single extrusion. The circuitry is minimalist with token gesture filtering. It does at least have smoothing on the input and output for flicker free operation. The termination is via a very short tail of two core flex that pops out the back at one end. It means that the only locations that this style of light can be used are where there is room for a small junction box behind them. This light came from a large UK electrical/electronics supplier, so it's designed for 240V. It does light on 120V but only runs at 13W. A thermocouple placed between the aluminium LED strip and case showed a temperature of 61C (about 44C above ambient). Here's a link to the range of sizes and colour temperatures.
