Hey folks,
I am after some lighting recommendations to emulate daylight at a reasonable cost on a benchtop. My main requirement is to match the spectrum of daylight as closely as possible and then make it roughly uniform over an area of 30*30cm to 1m^2.
I have read that short arc xenons are very good for this but they seem fairly rare and also have the tendency to blow up; the latter part makes me a bit uneasy.
The next thing I've come across are car HID's that use a combination of xenon and metal halides, would anybody know what their output spectrum is like?
Thanks!
