We’ve been writing about the Lupyled light fixture for over a year now, and until today we still hadn’t seen how this promising light is built. Well the speculation ends now as we’ve finally gotten a look at this very unique light fixture in real life.

The build quality of the Lupyled is nothing short of impressive; the entire housing is encased in stainless steel, making it ***** heavy, but also giving it the structural strength to house and support ten tanks’ worth of light emitting diodes. The Lupyled is designed with a veritable field of LEDs for its business end, with somewhere around 1,164 LEDs in the small sized fixture.

Just going to write that number out one time: one thousand, one hundred, sixty and four little light generating engines in the Lupyled. The company is still very busily setting up their booth so we haven’t seen the light on yet, and we still have oodles of questions about the light, but in the meantime, this is what such a densely packed group of LEDs looks like.

In the top left you can see one of the few accessory ultraviolet LEDs among the many others which make up the rainbow of the Lupyled spectrum

There’s a small handful of ‘high beam’ LEDs in the mix with a very narrow focal length to create some spotlight effects.
