  • is it possible to illuminate without seeing lamps?

    Hi All
    I need to fabricate a d/s projector with px panels. It has to be 1800x700x100mm. Is it possible to illuminate this without seeing the lamps. I would usually suggest 150mm (mainframe or similar)deep returns, but the customer has stated he wants 100mm.
    Is edge lighting the only way to go with this?

    any suggestions ?

    thx for the reply Kev.

    I’m just concerned about the lamps being visible. If I use 100mm slimline lightcase the lamps are going to be around 40mm from the face panels. In my experience this is way too close. The trim on the lightcase (slimline or standard) isn’t deep enough to hide the lamps if i go the edge lit route. I have never had to use edge lighting so again any suggestions or experience with this would be appreciated.
