jerry72 Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 I tried swapping my large blow mold over, i used a 7 watt, 60 watt equivalent, way to bright. i am still looking for something dimmer, may have to add a dimmer switch. As for the C9 size, i founf they were not bright enough on a few of my smaller molds with darker colors so they stayed incandescent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rcktpwrd Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 We have five blow mold candles that are about three-four feet tall. They all had a single incan bulb that only light the flame. I made some stands out of PVC pipe and fittings and we wrapped a string of cool white LED's around the pipe to light the entire length of the candles. They look pretty good, sorry I don't currently have any pictures handy to post... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caniac Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Gotta love this hobby, where else do you get to go into a Lowe's, Home Depot, Menard's et al for products that will play no use in home renovations. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got nothing to add to your post, just that I seen this thread was created by "Jeffery M" I am a Jeffery M too! With the misspelled Jeffery . I had to think to myself if i created a thread and forgot about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
