    Using a cheap Chinese bike light as a canister light head?

    You could fashion a goodman handle to slot into the fins easily enough, would also provide a bit of stability. As Lucca says, you could also use the magnet ring. The switch isn't a problem as I'm designing a new switch that doesn't rely on the housing :D

    Corrosion Risks underwater and electrical conductivity

    Hi All Just running an idea through my head and could do with some clarification. If using all aluminium you're getting away from galvanic/dissimilar metal corrosion as far as I can see. What are the other risks with aluminium and corrosion underwater? Also, what would happen if you were using 2...

    Designing a can light

    I'm having to wait until I get a free/dry weekend so I can replace a flat roof, then clear up the out-house and move the lathe to a larger space, then I can get cracking :D Bloody winter!
