Greetings all,
Scanning the threads and the OTHER "fluorescent Bulbs"
thread reminded me . . .
I took apart some scavenged flatbed scanners the other day salvaged
the ½" slide rails for a CNC milling project. Anyway these scanners also
contained 12 volt DC drivers and 8 watt "T5" size bulbs and it occurred
to me that I might be able to remount two of these along the LONG sides
of on of the scanners modify the box a bit and use it as a Photoresist
Exposure unit. Any one ever done this ? Anyone know of a source where
I can get "Plant Grow" lamps, "Black" lamps "Bug Zapper" or some other
type of "UV" fluorescent lamp in a 8 Watt "T5" size
( ~ 0.6xx" dia. X ~ 12" pin end to pin end ) on the CHEAP?
Not the EXPENSIVE "GERMICIDAL" type.
Thanks
