Does anyone know where I can buy daylight balanced spotlights from?
I use them to illuminate the layout building workbench and also for photography but while I can get the 60W bulbs (left) from t'Internet and possibly my favorite hardware store, they aren't as good as a 60W spotlight.
I'm assuming that the rules over incandescent light manufacture have killed them off but I'm struggling to find a suitable replacement. The bulbs have to fit a standard ES fitting but I'm happy to use long life versions IF I can get sufficient light.
Suggestions please dear reader.
Phil have a look on amazon :)

Sadly, I can only see conventional spotlights in that listing - I need daylight balanced.
ReplyDeleteTry Hobbystore. My local one has loads of different ones including LEDs, and ones with table stand magnifying glasses. If low power is a problem you just need a second lamp stand, which would help with shadows as well.
ReplyDeleteSorry that should have read Hobbycraft, not Hobbystore. Their websiteows loads of stores across the country so you should have one nearby.
ReplyDeleteThanks - there's one about 10 miles away so I'll have a look as soon as I can work up the nerve to drive to Coventry and THE RINGROAD OF DEATH. :-)

ReplyDeleteTry pet (reptile) suppliers -search 'Komodo daylight basking spot E27'...
ReplyDeleteThey appear to come in 50/75/100/150watt (but not 60, as far as I can see)
