chrony lights?

Adam, no kidding, one small add, drill the holes at an angle so the bulbs sit flat…

Great stuff here, I usually just swing the arm lamp over and turn up the overheads… 😕

Jim, good idea, compact, cheap and effective. With the flourescents on, have you experienced different readings then you would outside?? I left my flouresents on and got higher then usual readings? Might be how close they are to my “range” and where the chrony is setup. Just a heads up on the flourescents 5′-6′ away and they add 50fps to my usual readings. Same with my halogen shoplight which i thought wouldn’t be an issue at all, still added velocity to my string, be all good if it was a true reading, but when i turn all lights off except incandescents the numbers drop by 50fps or so. Any light source will give you a reading, but weather or not its accurate is another story, just my experience. Hope you don’t find your numbers drop when you turn off the other light sources. Thought you should know.

Now that is an idea I could use! Thnx

I have to shop lite reflectors which i wrapped the cords around a pipe in the basement so i can raise and lower the lamps when i want. I lower till just above the the skyscreens and everything works well for me. 40watt bulbs will do just fine. These reflectors are the aluminum dome variety for about $2 each.

Get a couple of incandescent lights like in an aquarium… tie them up to the top of the diffusers. Dont use florescent lights as the slight flickering will throw off the chrony. Easy enough!
