    Wiring the short strips in parallel reduces the voltage drop that occurs when powering a long continuous strip. This will increase the light output, but also draws much more power from the battery. Since I only use this light for video and pictures, it's not on constantly, so battery drain and heat won't be a problem.

    Good Morning! I see your videos only in the visual or the audio does not understand, because I can not understand English completely. But with your practice I learn. I'm Brazilian and I'm 64 years old. I like carpentry and do small jobs. My real profession is an Electronics Technician, already retired. I admire your dedication. I translated my text with Google.

    Great Idea using the aluminum flashing for the back panel. Gives a bit of heat sink and lighter weight than the original

    Good seeing you re-assemble these strips in parallel as I discussed in the first video, John. Those flexible copper traces have a surprisingly high resistance which gets pretty inefficient over longer series lengths. I've made two panels out of these LED reels, however I used a reel of 5630s rather than these dimmer 5050 SMD LEDs. Those develop several times the light by chip density, meaning you can pack them right in there. My lighting arrangement consists of a three-point setup with key/fill/hair, each being approximately 12'000lm (), 3'200lm and 800lm respectively. It genuinely makes an enormous difference. The downside is power requirements as the key needs about 12A/12VDC to operate at full brightness. Pretty strong stuff. For the same size of panel you have there, you'd be able to increase density a little and get 5-6x the light output to really kick out the shadows. Maybe use that one as your fill in addition?

    On Amazon, they offer a stronger hot melt glue. It costs a bit more than the clear or white glue sticks but the strength is considerably stronger.
    I use it to repair the sole heels on my walking shoes and the stronger glue stick is really tough and lasts a long time.
    Try it, you'll like it and you may not need the pin nailer.

    @pbalcommissioner3879 4 года назад

    Now, you’ll want to make another one of those and have it mounted on the ceiling, pointed downward and slightly behind you. This will give a bit of a rim light around you, some separation from the background and ultimately a bit of depth.
    This is my PSA Tip for a professional photographer. Wanna see what I’m talking about, watch any of the national news programs and you’ll see just a sliver of light on the top of the reporters heads and shoulders.
    This is a phenomenal DIY project that can elevate any youtubers vids

      @Yonatan24 7 лет назад

      John, have you tried 12V 10W LED's? I've bought them on eBay, and have used them for several projects already.
      They take up way less space.

    • @Yonatan24
      @Yonatan24 7 лет назад

      But you'll need a big heat sink too...

    • @chrismusaf
      @chrismusaf 7 лет назад +1

      Yonatan24 like a large piece of aluminum flashing?

    • @Yonatan24
      @Yonatan24 7 лет назад

      Just Googled to know what that is.
      I don't think so. You need a serious heat sink for dissipating the heat from several 10W LED's.

    • @ProbeGT2
      @ProbeGT2 7 лет назад

      Or you could buy an ATV light bar and put it on an arm to precisely light up a work piece or an area. They're stupid bright and easy to mount on anything.

  • @GoGreenMan
    @GoGreenMan 7 лет назад

    I noticed you scooted them over after you tapped them down so the wires were on the flashing. lol when you first started tapping them I saw that and was wondering how that was gonna work. great work

  • @drutgat2
    @drutgat2 6 лет назад

    Thanks for this. I really enjoyed it. Unfortunately, I am not in any way 'handy', so will not be doing this kind of thing myself.
    I was wondering what camera and lights you used to film the video, as I really enjoyed the production values that you created with them - sharp resolution from the camera, and good, bright lighting.
    All the best.

  • @Cactustone
    @Cactustone 7 лет назад

    You said, "It's a lot brighter." Is that simply from placing the lights closer together? I'm wondering how a smaller light can be brighter when the same number of LEDs were used in both fixtures. Thanks!

  • @squalazzo
    @squalazzo 7 лет назад +1

    no heat problems with all those leds so close one to each other, and not properly sticked on the back, so it acts as a heat sink?

    Thanks for the video John. This is exactly what I am looking for to mount to the ceiling in my shop. Could you provide a link for where you bought your LEDs? As I search online there are several factors to consider when buying LEDs and it would be great to know exactly which bulbs worked for you. Thanks!

    • @IBuildIt
      @IBuildIt  7 лет назад +1

      I don't have a link, but the most important thing to look for is color temp - it needs to match your shop lighting (for video, that is).

    I don't know what you have invested in that time or money wise but you can buy 2' X 2' LED and 1' X 4' LED lamps for drop ceiling at your local electrical supply house for about $60.
    I notice your workshop has the same issue mine does. Clutter just seems to happen. :)

    • @IBuildIt
      @IBuildIt  7 лет назад +1

      Do they run off a 12 volt battery?

    • @jimallen1485
      @jimallen1485 7 лет назад +1

      They run on a 12-volt power supply that comes with the lamp. So, I would say yes you could easily hook them up to run off of a battery. I really like your work and think your lamp is fantastic. I just know there are many folks that do not have the fabrication skills or the tool collection you possess.
      I do watch a lot of your vids.

    • @IBuildIt
      @IBuildIt  7 лет назад +1

      Actually, this channel is all about the fabrication. Even if they can run from a battery, the lights you described are too big.

    • @jimallen1485
      @jimallen1485 7 лет назад

      Yes, they are large. I am actually planning to utilize 2 of the 1' X 4' units in a green screen setup. I, of course, will have to fab up brackets and floor stands for them.
      I am all about DIY.

  • @SimonHayter

    Looks like a really nice light but its a shame that you didn't opt to glue the stripes to the metal plate using thermal glue, not only will it a little safer, your LEDs will last way longer.
