Hey low_rdr! The project is unnecessary compared to a normal aluminium heatsink, but It's what I had lying around and I thought it would be a cool (npi) thing to do. I really appreciate your advice and as I'm actually quite serious about security (despite the cirucmstances) I'll do the copper Ts+solder. No epoxy!

My cab is actually lined with drywall as fire-proofing. Not that it makes it safe, but safer than a wooden-cab, right? The last thing I want is a fire. I even considered water-balloons as an automatic fire-extinguisher You know, condensation hadn't occurred to me, partly because as weezard pointed out, that the rig would be hotter than ambient temp so it won't happen. But then again, I am probably in the deep end here. Good thing I've got you guys here to look this thing over!

About the lamp itself:

(I was going to ask before mounting all this, so I'm only 87% sure it will work)

9 LedEngin LEDs total

4x10w 623nm red
3x10w 660nm red
2x10w 460nm blue

2x Meanwell APC35-700

That's it. I hope I got this right, as it was pretty expensive stuff. It's still packaged, though.
