I'm fairly sure what I need for this lantern mod I'm doing is a low dome or side emitter, but just looking to make sure what will work best. The lantern will have the emitter simply sitting on top of a large piece of aluminum with no optics or light scattering plastic tubes around it. A plastic lampshade goes on the lantern that looks just like a regular lampshde, only smaller.
I'd like to get as much even distribution of light as possible... off to the sides as well as straight up.
The basic question is... what works best to throw light all around, high dome, low dome, or side emitter?
