Just on the off chance there's anyone (I bet there is
) who knows this stuff ...
In the UK when exhibiting 240v/120v lighting is inconvenient to use ie in outdoor marquees or just not available. So I've been looking at 12v battery driven lamps, probably on a flexible stem and fixed with a clamp. They are expensive just had a quote for 4 x 5w lamps with battery and charger for £550 !! So I thought DIY solution ...
1) 12v led array (probably circular) 5000K to 6500K colour temp or maybe some form of cluster
2) 12v battery (probably lead acid) with sufficient rating to drive multiple arrays
3) So form of driver unit to interface between battery and LED array
4) heatsink (probably)
Then the idea is to buy a flexible stem 240v lamp with clamp. Remove the bulb unit and fashion the led array etc in its place and feed 12v wiring down stem to battery that would sit behind the screens.
That's the starter idea. Looks like it could be done cheaply and be a safe, effective solution.
Any thoughts.
Thanks
