Ali-express also has a $3 coupon today so it’s down to $87. One heck of a deal. I said I wasn’t going to buy another one, well I lied. I couldn’t pass it up.
FYi, my link above is correct. Buy the Shocker and this lobster claw thing which is $10, that’s his code for the upgrade. (seems weird to me too)

Panavise 301 in store only $19.97 at Radioshack. You can check your local stores on their website for stock.

I have helping hands and also have a normal (non articulating) vise. I guess I’ll add this one to the tinkering/soldering tool repertoire. Couldn’t pass this one up when I saw the price. I know some people are crazy about Panavises so I’m passing on this info for anyone that might be interested.

10pcs generic 12V 10W emitter (2 days sale) for $7.33 shipped (for white/WW):

Ok, here goes; my first showdown. I’d like to try to post one of these once in a while, mostly for fun, maybe as part of a giveaway.
This was not a scientific test, for sure. My integrating sphere is not even close to calibrated, but it can give me relative output results; good enough for a showdown.
So here goes…
[image]
On the left is a generic 10W LED module in a WW tint (~3000K). It’s arranged in 3s3p, for a total of nine 1.1W emitters.
In the middle we have the ol’ standby, the trusty …
I know it’s not the most efficient nor the best emitter, but at 73cents each, it’s a really good value. Cheap and functions from 12V direct with just a 1 - 2ohm resistor in series.
