I'm thinking of getting some more smart pixels but this is for lights in general. Last year we had a few days where the ambient temperature didn't drop below 40C until between 9-10pm (so lights are on in that temp). It was hot. 43-45 in the day with one day at 48C (although that was just after new years so lights off by then).
So how does 40C temp effect life operation and lifespan. I had some leds (Big W fairy lights) on the roof last year and they still work but the silicon casing (well I hope it's just the casing) has gone a nice brown/grey colour from the heat.
Just wanted to double check before the spend.
