I had to pull out some of the old and moldy HAIII two-up and three-up parts oo:

It rocks!

I like it!

I still like those body parts you made, as well as the focusable turbo head concept. Is this one focusable like that?

Very nice looking tower assembly. I do like the scotch tape "clamp" holding a driver in the bottom pic. Beamshots please.

wow 3A, any heat issues?

The adapter piece isn't long enough (due to the stack height of the driver), for the focusing mechinism.

I have some new ideas to explore :devil:

None! The SF turbo head, and the SF turbo head adapter...and my adapter to their adapter, give more than enough mass for cooling. The entire light will get warm, after say...30 minutes on the high setting.

The driver that's taped to my test plate has endured 10 hours at 3 amps, and it has suffered no ill effects. It's really a nice driver, and better still at less than $5 each.

I'll add another photo later today, showing the two adapter pieces, for those not familiar with the SF turbo head, and my oldy parts line-up.........

That thing looks awful!
I live near a metal recycling center... if you ship to me, I can take care of it for you! :nana:

PS - WE NEED BEAMSHOTS!!!
