Diffuser for L & M 1000 LED ligths...

3 posts
  1. All,

     

    On a recent trip to the Red Sea my L&M 1000 LED lights were a bit too 'loud' on night dives.

     

    I've now found a cheap option for diffusing the light - I don't have any means of measuring the drop in colour temp and haven't tested them yet but its a neat solution that will hopefully work!

     

    I used the sealing part of a Douwe Egberts coffee jar and tethered it to the light head using a piece of innertube and line. This pushes into the light head and is a snug enough fit that it shouldn't pop out (time will tell!). The innertube and line combination allows me to remove the diffusers when not needed.

    Hope that makes sense - perhaps a few pics will help...see attachments.

  3. Were they too bright when dropped to a third power via the pods?
