totally killer dude! i was pondering the same idea, this way you can get the lights real close to the buds, you can buy plugin socket adapters at your local hardware store for 2 bucks each and just put them into a corded outlet, I guess you where thinking useing lamp sockets or seomthing?
Looks like u got the idea, surround that bitch with as much light as possible. I'd get all the lights setup and make sure u got the temps in check.
