Subject: Re: Lighting - Light box
Hi Charles,
I recently needed to find a large light box for one of our students. In
the end I recommended one from Jessops - they are photography equipment
shop. While phoning round suppliers I discovered that some of the light
boxes available have two pin plugs on them (rather than standard three
pin UK plugs). It's worth checking!
