Hey Guys,

I just wanted to post a few pictures of a worklight my friend helped me create!

It i running 3 SST-50s, (2 cool white, 1 warm white)
and 2 Red Osram Emitters -- Diamond Dragons I believe.

It is running on a pentium II heatsink, and has a tripod mount on the bottom.

The protection plate is actually lightly frosted, so apologies for the slightly blry frontal shot.

The light has 3 H6CC drivers - and a potentiometer is hooked up to each. the 4th pot isn't connected to anything -- room for expansion.

It is currently being powered by a 65W laptop power supply - I was using a 60W one earlier, but it kept cutting out when I maximized the light.


Here's a quick vid of the light:

shadows are currently very wonky, you can see reddish(osrams) and bluish(cw ssts) shadows, but I'll be getting a diffusor plate very soon!

Nice design. Now you need to aim at something with color to show what this can really do. Btw, which warm sst-50 did you use? Was it a 3000k emitter?
