I want to bump up from my $24 50 watt LED to a 100 watt totable LED work light. I assume 500 watt led (more my speed), would be too dim to justify the bulk, weight and price. My question is should I buy a pre-made $44 100 watt led work light or a $30 100 led watt kit with fan and driver. Can the kit be made into something drip resistant, tote resistant, and kick resistant?
Field Background: For painting, I merely like my 41k lumen new output of my 400 watt MH winged reflector worklight. And, despite my intense love of my 600/1000 MH Watt Grow light (magnetic ballast, with tota ls2 stand $150/$300), I do think there is a place for a small, portable, durable, cheap, 500watt halogen, or better, my 50 watt led. These dinky little lights are great as lantern lights, place holder lights (something you put up to soothe customer worry, until the big light can be safely setup). The 50 watt LED work light was cheap $24, cool, low amp draw, seems durable, half as bright as the 500 watt halogen-more or less. Great tote about light; just not that bright. Dinky to me is under 80k lumens. But dinky is good, if cheap and light weight.
