Wayne, good link.
As far as the bulbs blowing in shop lights, most units I've seen have sheets of glass covering the bulb. I'd consider it a very important safety factor if you are shopping around for a set of these lights.

The safety glass has to be for the light to be UL CUL or CSA approved. Not a good idea to be removing safety shields. Apart from personal injury the hot glass will perminently scar a carpet or upholstery.

blue gel
Ok, since you guys mentioned blue gel,
Let's say a couple cheap 500w halogen shop lights are the extent of my lighting arsenal. If I wanted to create a blue light to simulate moonlight in a fog filled horror movie, could I get away with blue gell in front of one of the shop lights? I'm not talking about blue gel to correct the warm color of halogen, I mean an actual blue light. What would be the most practical way to achieve this? (and least expensive) Thanks Adam |

Gels come in various grades from colour temp adjustment to changing the colour of the light. Do a search on Google for a distributor near you and check out what they have.
