Inside a Tuya compatible bluetooth downlight

A look inside a typical bluetooth controlled downlight that integrates with the Tuya app (or others with Tuya compatibility) for control over intensity, colour temperature and RGB colour. This was even simpler than I was expecting. The module inside this has hackability, as it will work from 12V at reduced power (the original supply is 13.6V, although that drops under load). There is a lack of proper heatsink continuity in this light, so it might actually be a good candidate for customisation. Power data is as follows:- Any white at 100% = 5W RGB at full = 3.6W Red at full = 1.5W Green at full = 1.4W Blue at full = 1.4W Standby power is 0.75W with the circuitry passing 13mA. This unit came from AliExpress as usual. Here's a link to the item on AliExpress (not a sponsor).
