I wonder if you could take a bunch of those, and the screw in sockets, and run 3 or 4 of them in a circut to make a 'fixture'.

That is what I was planning to do and you can get 30w if you try hard enough. However for a hundred watts of lighting using those bulbs it would cost you about £45 and then you would need to buy fittings. I can get the interpet double unit and two tubes for £50 so it isn't really worth it. Still keeping check on the over heating problems though.

I do have a nice electrical shop close to me though and he will be able to get me what I am looking for and might have some good prices. He seems to quite like me and I usually end up with a discount. Might have something to do with me being a very good customer and only 15 though.

Many marine types construct a hood with four sockets and use those bulbs to illuminate marines, so, you can construct a hood out of it. SH
