AC Powered White LED Circular Magnifier Work Lamp

Step 10Assembling the lamp head unit

Assembling the lamp head unit
,

Crimp-connect the LED lamp assembly pigtail wires to the black and white wires available in the Lamp Head unit.

Here is a great time to test to see if proceeding would be a waste of time. Plug in and turn on to see that the LEDs light. Yehaw! Then unplug again to continue.

Reassemble the lamp head unit but do not install the flimsy plastic light diffuser shell yet. I used the original florescent lamp holding clips modified a bit, see pix, because these clips also hold in the glass lens, so why reinvent the wheel.

I found no need to rebalance the weight of the upper lamp unit to compensate the springs as the final weight was about equal enough to original weight head weight. You may need to add a bit of weight, or not.
