Fly Bench Light

[Sean]

When I saw this on Pinterest I did have some reservations as to how good it would be, but this puppy has exceeded all my expectations. 80cm at the base and 80cm high using cool white leds this is exactly what my poor eyes need when tying flies. The beauty of this is that you don't get shadows on your work. The whole thing cost me less than $30 with the strip coming from an Oz ebay seller. Bought an extra power pack as I bought a 5m strip and want to make another light for the work bench.

That's awesome Sean, I think I may have to make one of those up for my bench, is that just a cool white led strip light ? what is the wattage and chip spacings on that strip ?
I have to say it also looks a little like a portal/gate into another dimension !

This is what I bought Steve, added another inverter so I could make another light for the shed.
