Equals one BRIGHT mother huncher light!
It's a 4D M*g with 1" Schedule40, and 3/4" Water pipe spacers.
I found a Sylvania 20W 8 degree MR16 at Lowes. I tried soldering wires to it and then to pins, no go. I tried crimp connections. Nope.
I dremeled the fat pins skinnier, and took some material off so it would sit down in the PR adapter a bit.
I tried 6 cells first, and it was pretty bright. So I stuck a 7th of unknown strength (pretty sure it wasn't used much) and VOILA! Very close to the light, the beam is so intense that I could feel heat on my foot, and had to see it with peripheral vision!
It may not last long, and I don't dare leave it on for more than seconds at a time.
But HOLY MOLEY what a LIGHT!
Yeeha! Incandescents on the edge are FUN!
