WANTED: Light Integrator
« on: November 02, 2017, 01:21:19 PM »
I picked up a used high power MH light, but it does not have an integrator. Does anybody here have one they'd be willing to part with?

thanx,

pierre
Yes, we've won our share of awards, and yes, I've tested stuff and read the scientific papers, but ultimately take everything I say with more than just a grain of salt! So if you are looking for trouble, just do as I say or even better, do something I said years ago!

I think I do, Pierre, and it's yours if I can find it... I'm a little beat up right now, but I'll take a look a little later.

I have an extra Olix AI 970. It has a broken power switch but can be jumped with a screwdriver. PM me your UPS acct  info / ship to address and and ill ship it out. We don't really need two of these.

Thanx guys!

Homer seems to have what I need and if that does not work out, I'll reach back again.

Very excited, nice 6K light coming in on monday. We might be ditching the LED. While I feel that LED will work for 90% of the shops, those of us that want more, might have to stick with MH. Let's see how the laser does. . .

What LED are you using.?
Hopefully you’ll post your findings once you set up the MH.

Mine is gone as we purge for the upcoming move; glad Homer had one for you. The advantages of LED do have a sort of siren's call to me, but point source concept has always stuck in my head; I started on a carbon arc lamp, and I know some folks here have used the sun. With the type of precision you strive for Pierre, I think you're doing the right thing, for what it's worth.
