Hello all. I just recently joined this wonderful forum and wanted to introduce myself. I am very interested in spotlights and or searchlights. I have always wanted to create a searchlight that could "slice" into the night sky and have started small with such as a 35watt hid spotlight and focusing it with a fresnel lens. I can't say that's the best method but, it creates a beam and the fact that fresnel lens can do just that is an improvement on my ideas. Anyways was just wanted to introduce myself and was just wondering if anyone knew how I should go about creating a homemade searchlight. I would like to keep it as inexpensive as possible but, sometimes it's hard to.:shrug: Anyways thanks for looking at my post and maybe you can get me going in the right direction on this. :twothumbs
