Hi ! Did you ever try to do this lamps with solar lights??? I do want to tryout, but I’m Concern about the lights Brightness , I think they no going to be that strong to go through the pipe and no be visible....

[@CanuckusRuckus]

Is there a reason you don't use pvc cement instead of the epoxy? Pvc cement softens both plastics so they bond on a molecular level. I was just curious if the 2 part glue is holding up well?

[@ChrisGagnonDIY]

i think you can I just work a little to slowly for the glue. it dries very fast for me. but its up to you. thanks for the sugestion

[@jasonb4350]

You can use pvc primer and glue just like if you were doing a plumbing job and it dries really fast

[@ChrisGagnonDIY]

+Jason B thanks I don't have much experience with it but I will try it out.

+Urban Self Sufficiency thanks i just cant see spending all that mony at the store. Glad you like it

[@UrbanSelfSufficiency]

Plus, you made it . . . much more rewarding!

[@WRXMSK]

Nice build, buy you've placed it right under your surveillance cam, so it's most likely will be blinded by the light.

[@henryuzoho4209]

I was about to say that, you need to relocate either of them...direct light beam and cameras are not friendly. .. Please take note.

[@donnaliejoseph3214]

Great video Chris, can you tell me what type/wattage of Led bulb did you use? I would like to make a pvc lamp for indoor use. however, many persons has told me the pvc will heat-up and is very harmful. Please, Please give your advise. Thank you very much for you kind assistance.

[@ChrisGagnonDIY]

+Donnalie Joseph LED lights run much cooler than all other. The bulbs I use is in the description below. They are 5 watts. If people are telling you that they just lack experience with LED. A 5 watt LED bulb will produce 150 Farenhight on the surfaces. Little hotter than the water in you faucet. Good luck with your project

[@donnaliejoseph3214]

Chris Gagnon Awesome 😊 thank you for responding. I will definitely give this a try!

[@alfred9775]

Know all you have to do is relocate your surveillance camera.

[@starman2253]

Is this safe,because all lights come with metal.

[@ChrisGagnonDIY]

+brian latchman all of my previous landscape lights were plastic and the had halogen bulbs in the. Halogen bulbs get 5 time hotter than 5 Watt LED bulbs

[@d_k_C_A]
