Subman's Jump into the big leagues (225g)

Stick it in your electrical box
If I had one lying around, I would have hooked it up to my RKE instead of running a 20' cable

I have to find it lol

As I was looking at all the equipment you have in your electical box (and it looks impressive!) I was wondering if you have any ventelation to disperse the heat, or is there so little heat that it is not an issue? I will not have room in my stand for this kind of box but will likely build something to to sit beside my stand and I am trying to think through the construction of it.

I had thought about the heat building up but the only thing producing heat is the Radion ballasts and they barely produce any heat. If I was still running halides I would have a fan pressuring the box to also force any humidity out (still might for that reason). Also the front is going to be a magnetic skin so it's not sealed in the front.

Couldn't find the eeepc but I did come across my old convertible pc. The screen folds over to become a tablet.



Its sitting with the keyboard down so I locked it out and only use the stylus and remote log in to use it.



Also got the light rack built and hung today



It's aluminium angle that I made a box out of and the Radions just sit in the channel







I know it looks like the the sol is 10x brighter in the last pic but the radions were only at 20% when I took it.

Lights look great, and nothin' like not havin' to run a cable to the PC.
Plus no ground loop issue

Your lighting, with the frame you built looks very impressive. I'm now trying to talk Deborah into letting me do something similare so that I don't have to take the time to build a canopy

thats the perfect use for a Sol.....out of the way where you cant see it and all its loveliness


starting to look like the starship enterprise in that box of yours.....very cool!
