I've noticed they also sell replacement bulbs, much cheaper than the
real type of bulb, in a pack of 4.

I may try sunlight first, I only need to make 2 boards with the same
design 6 times on each, I'm in a rush for these but once done I may
not need another board until about 6 month from now.........
