Drop Light for Confined Spaces

While working on my sunroof I was wishing I had a drop light that would fit into the limited space available. So I made one, using an LED strip intended to replace fluorescents and a cheap extension cord.




That is a Forest Lighting T5-30. It is approximately one foot long. They also come in two, three, and four-foot lengths.

This little guy is great. Hooks that pivot and spin on both side and also a magnet on one. Led and fully rechargeable. Gets amazing battery life.

This is strange but it works so well. It's almost holiday time, Christmas lights are out in the stores. Find a LED string, the brightest you can find with the whitest color balance that you like. LEDs make little heat, shove them in a white plastic garbage bag, then shove it wherever you want, in any shape you want. Use some killer magnets to hold the bag where it works for you.
