Sup guys. Recently I've got my hands on some cheap leds,

why do you need this? don't tell me it's a gaymur computer case or something like that

>Like if I would put there a 30W driver will the LED light become actual 30W led light?
Kek'd. No, if you did that, LEDs would just burn up.

Yes I need more wattage for my pc gaming rig, cause several 8W LED bulbs don't blind me enough

How can I know how much they can take?
I was kinda hoping they would just draw enough power to work, like regular lamps when you connect them to the socket.
I've read on people just putting a single powerfull driver for the whole house, so I assume there is a way to do this

>How can I know how much they can take?
Take one out and hook it up to a variable power supply and see.

as for the rest, that's not how LEDs work.

>cause I know jack shit about this stuff

Yet somehow you were able to arrive at conclusion about the real power level. How?

Measuring the power level indicates using at least a multimeter. Anything else you a) could use to answer your question b) are not telling us?

I borrowed that device from a friend where you connect between the socket and your device and it shows you the wattege drawn.

I do have a multimeter, the one with those two needles, but I don't think I can use it in any helpful way in this matter. but then again, I know next to nothing about electricity

Ok. It seems that you indeed have mains powered LED lamps. They really should not be tampered with, for obvious reasons. Too much risk involved and really nothing to be gained in this situation. The manufacturers have quite probably squeezed so much power into the LED elements (and then some more), that the longevity is already questionable.

But, if you are interested to know what might be inside those things, you might watch a couple of videos by Big Clive (bigclivedotcom) at Youtube.

The posting system seems to doubt my intentions, if I include a direct link. Let's try this format.

I don't know what mains powered means, but i am going to read up on them.
And thanks for the channel, guy is pleasant to watch.
My bulb looks like this one

in construct I mean, same socket and all, but mine is a bit smaller and has an alluminum radiator around which runs at about 50-60 C

And mine doesn't have anything else on the surface except for diods
