A little fuzzy on that one. By the time it gets to the end of the pond, it's total flood and there isn't a bright spot any more. It's not a thrower, but I wasn't trying for that anyhow.

That's all folks. It will be up for sale soon...

That Copper shot idea is brilliant, more heat capacity less weight. Looks like a good mod step for thin Aluminum heat sinks on those multiple LED supper lights.

Did the heat it took to add all the shot not discolor the ano?

Looks like another awesome project.

O-L,

That is amazing work!!

No. It takes a higher temperature than the melting point of 60/40 solder, to discolor anodizing.

great idea with the copper shavings as a filler to help absorb heat. :slight_smile:

Cool trick… have to try this someday :heart_eyes: :beer: :beer:

I noticed your using 60/40 solder, I have been using 63/37. I’m sure you have a good reason for using 60/40 and I’m curious to know what it is.

No good reason other than that’s what I have always used. It started with soldering water pipes way back when and I just stuck with it, rosin core 60/40.

wow that light is going to be even more front heavy! nice mod. cant wait to see the end result.

Can you head east a few hundred miles, I need some help on my contest light.

He's booked out next week as an Australian beckons with help on his.

What reflectors are you using?

The reflectors were out of a solarstorm raging, but similar ones can be gotten from kaidomain.
