Consumer Protection? Kobe beef?

Is the term consumer protection an oxymoron? Isn’t it, that as a consumer I am already doomed? Doesn’t this term have a stale by-taste of sarcasm? To me it seems like rising beef with all the possible care so it becomes healthy, brawny and after all tasty. A live in paradise to eventually get slaughtered and being eaten by it’s foster steward. Keep the consumer healty and paying, give him a good feeling of being cared for. Just to be continually eaten alive.

4 x 4 array of LED in a square tile (rendered)

Thank’s to our friend we have an experienced Blender expert at hand who is more than able and dedicated to visualise lighting objects. Here is a sample of a square tile for lighting purposes, shining it’s lights. A possible problem unveils here that the thickness of the tile may become a challenge. With only 5mm building height material thickness needs to be rather thin. With an estimate 1mm (might be reduced to 0.7mm) thickness for the back of the tile’s case, 1mm for the PCB (might be reduced to 0.5mm with much higher costs) and an assumed thickness of 1mm for an opaque Plexi, there are only 2mm left for LED component height. Thus an even light distribution may become an other incitement.
