LED's for MH

Post by Dot »

I would like to put a LED light (12v) over the table but want it to be quite bright (about 150 lumens) and if poss on a bendy / flexible arm. What do you people reckon is the best way to go?

"tanks" here ---
I note that this unit is not 12 volt, but you could run it through your inverter.

Dot have a look on ebay there are quite a few 12v ones, they are also sold as map reading lights too.
Here is a 12v one http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/12V-SURFACE- ... lcaIOa1m1Q
