Toto Vivian Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 With the influx of small portable LED lights I was wondering if anyone had any hacks using them with paper lanterns? Im not that fussed on long running time, looking for a wireless setup thats easy to carry and play around with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Phil Rhodes Posted May 27, 2020 Premium Member Share Posted May 27, 2020 I'd probably look at getting some LED strip and just coil it around a bit of tube, or something. You can get stuff on eBay that has reasonable colour quality and then you end up with something really inexpensive. P 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have some dimmers that handle it quite well but that's an optional extra. P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
