I recently bought a gun bore light and tried to use it for a pen barrel which was defective. The led was on a flexible shaft but the led itself is a horrible cool white or bluish white and now I m on the hunt for a US made bore light in HI CRI neutral to warmish 3000k to 5500k.

Foreign made will work if I can get what I want here but need some quality whatever it is.

Is this a true "WTB" thread, or more of a discussion "Recommend me" topic ?

If you want one for guns look up "original J bore lights" the clear can be lit up with whatever emitter you want. They work great by themselves. Look it up. It'll make more sense.

Actually found one from Bore Tec it's not cheap but looks very impressive with a fiber optic cable

Please post pics as all I have ever done is take a small AAA and a sheet of paper in the breech.

Will do when I get it. This isn't only for gun bores but small areas such as custom pen barrels (had a Microtech Siphon II brand new from the factory full of junk and debris from manufacturing.)
