So guys I had an idea about custom diffusers for headlamps. My Astrolux HL01 is way to throwy for close up work. Since I couldnt find a diffuser for it, I decided to make one myself. Ihave read about using privacy foils and self adhesive difuser tapes, but I decided to try hotglue. And It worked! The colored versions give perfect result, the white one does still have a gentle hot spot in the middle, but now its reallly floody.
Of course this wouldnt work on all lights, only low power ones. Nothing that would melt the glue. And it will absorb some of the light and cause some geat build up in the head of rhe light.
But for this light, it can be removed and put back in and it holds in place quite firmly!
Cant make beamshots right now, but maybe I can make some later. What are your opinions on this? Any ideas how to improve this?
