DIY twin 70w halide work light.
Something I knocked up when I was bored.
Basically took the cheapest twin 500w halogen work light that I could find and then modified it to accept 70w RX7 metal halide lamps.
The gearbox is larger than it needs to be as I was originally going to use mag gear but I decided instead to use electronic gear for weight reasons.
I could have re-used the original cable but instead I added flexible conduit to feed the lighting heads, just because I could.
I made sure that there is enough to still allow full rotation.
