Attaching the clamp: it came with some holes predrilled and taped so I just put holes in the cover and screwed it on. 



LEDS and diving. Yes, been messing with them for several years. I started with DIY canister lights, modifying Maglite flashlights into light heads. I found a guy online who made thick replacement lenses. I have a few left if anyone wants to experiment. A mini lathe and I was in business. 


Then the Chinese dive lights started showing up. Without batteries they are pretty cheap. So I made a video light out of one and a 50w flat bulb. Turned a piece of aluminum bar to sit under the bulb as a heat sink. Also nicely holds the bulb just under the lens. Found an old, cheap Dive Rite canister designed for a regular lead acid battery. Replaced battery with Li Phosphate and that left enough room for a transformer. It worked so well I made one for Harold.
