A semi-related comment. A few months ago Woot had a set of what look like TWO of these, but USB powered with color gels and stands for some insane low price, so of course I bought them.
Finally got to use them yesterday to photograph a glass crystal microphone for the cover of my new audiobook, “I Want To Podcast!”
They worked insanely well! I aimed them, one with blue gel, one with red BEHIND the mic onto a sheet of white tag board.
My point is that their illumination was uniform, easy to control and just worked. I suspect you will find all kinds of uses for this one. Quick shots for eBay items comes to mind.
