I’m building a vanity light for my SO and would like a second opinion (or third or forth…) on the parts im putting together.
I saw a vanity light at Ikea that was 120Euro, using dim CFL’s and thought I could definitely do better than that.
Here’s the parts list for the build so far:
10 x XP-G2 3D tint on 20mm stars
power supply - Meanwell 1400ma constant current
I might go for the 1000ma version depending on what kind of heatsink I can cobble together.
So that will be 5 LED’s per side at almost 5000lumen. Im not sure what I could use as a dimmer…
I considered going high CRI but went with the XP-G2 to bring down the cost of the project. Now that I look at it though he has a 3.25usd shipping option on his site… that could work…
The dimming solution would just be to use another driver - Meanwell ELN-60-48D, but the cheapest price shipped I could find is 60usd! thats almost 3 times more than the driver I linked above…
