The CN-160 LED video lighting that I bought from Amazon was pretty inexpensive. It was a little more than $26.00. Normally, LED lights will set you back more than 100 bucks.
The one thing I didn't like about this light is that it needed to run on expensive camcorder batteries. So I set out to make it work with a power adapter. I found on eBay one power adapter that was compatible with the CN-160 LED light. So, as they say, the rest is history!
I tried to make this tutorial so easy to follow that even a person that has never done any electronic project of the sort will be able to follow along. Good luck and, if you like this tutorial, leave a comment.
