Couldn't see spending ~$80 on a mount for my AI 26HD light for my new Waterbox 25. Also wasn't fond of most mounts clamping to the back glass, so I made my own for under $10, just a 3/4" EMT electrical conduit bent at 90deg (bent it at the store with the tool so didn't need to buy expensive tool), and two conduit clamps and some black spray paint. Super easy and quick and the clamp and pin on the back of my stand lets me rotate the pole 90 deg so the light isn't over the tank when cleaning.
Next step is to 3d Print a shade but since this is a peninsula but the way I have the led mounted I need to shade one short side and two long sides so the thingiverse design won't work as is. I may also run the cord inside the conduit to make it more streamlined.
