I would prefer a lower wattage bulb as a large portion of the power is produced as heat and since I have a fireplace I dont need additional heating
I'm liking Elken's Phillips CDM 150/TD/942
However I still need to source the best ballast, preferebly an electronic one, but a magnetic will do in a pinch.
The cheapest electronic I can find is $129.99 and the magnetic was $62.99 (sourced by Tameone)
Anyone know of anything better, I would love to know!!
My main question is will the pro fresnels work with this light setup as I see alot of people goin to a longer condenser throw/precondenser and a shorter field fresnel setup or will the 220mm condenser and 650mm field work well ????
I am thinking on building a vertical setup to avoid the need for keystoning.
Thanks for any advice !!!
Cheers,
Paul
