evilc66 Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Nice! theDoogan, you could also hang it from your stand. I think one of the TOTM entries in the last few months had a setup that mounted to the back of the stand and hung the fixture from that. Saves you having to put holes in your ceiling. Link to comment
thedoogan Posted November 17, 2008 Author Share Posted November 17, 2008 I ended up hanging it. Im very happy with how it turned out. Not a bad light on a college budget. Link to comment

Splumph Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 I just noticed, did you end up not needing the fan? Link to comment
thedoogan Posted November 18, 2008 Author Share Posted November 18, 2008 I took it off for that picture because my temp fan is ugly. Its a small processor fan running on 12V rightnow untill I get a new aluminum case fan. The heatsink will probably stay cool without it though. Its pretty big and the LEDs are still not running near full yet. Just incase. Link to comment
