    LED flood lamp wiring - basic wiring ??s

    Hello neighbor, I'm in queen creek. I was running with the new lights last night, really like the short-range coverage as it seems that my headlights are aimed all the way low still have a distinct lack of coverage to about 15-20 feet.

    LED flood lamp wiring - basic wiring ??s

    well, counter to all of the above advice, impatient me went ahead and wired the lights into the front running lamp harness... works GREAT! Sure, they will be on all the time, but I would run like that anyway... I'll work on aiming them this evening.

    Photo Tips, Tricks and techniques

    most DSLRs have 'bulb' capability by using a trigger device or laptop, then the issue becomes battery life, but you can also run the camera and accessories off of a battery, too. then the issue becomes patience... I've tinkered with long exposures and time-lapse sequences... fun stuff when...

Our family is Canon centered for my wifes wedding business and my landscapes... but I've recently taken to...
