The shotlight build hasn&#8217;t gotten much love lately, not sure if I&#8217;m going to get back to it, bit of a lark, but it does look cool next to it&#8217;s cousins. #TUBELIFE<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Interestingly, the old tubes seems to do a better job of transmitting the light around the curve and I&#8217;m not sure why. The old light and the silicone is only a few months older than the new one, but the actual vinyl tubes I used for that light were ones I&#8217;ve had for years. I think that roll of tubing had been sitting in my parts bin for a decade. I do notice the older vinyl has a slightly yellowish tint. I&#8217;m not sure if that&#8217;s from the factory or from sitting and accumulating layers of tobacco smoke. Whatever it is, I wish I could duplicate it. You can almost tell in the video that the middle of the new light doesn&#8217;t get quite as much light, but the old one is pretty even throughout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyway- the new one has four coils instead of three because THERE ARE FOUR LIGHTS!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>No wise man ever said &#8220;You can&#8217;t start trying to make warp coil lights and get caught up in a whole other thing with the stuff you started making the warp coil lights with and then not eventually get back to warp coil lights.&#8221; And you know what?
