Basecamp LED light board


These guys supply a range of LED boards and strips. They are also a film production company as their website illustrates. You'll have to call direct to get info on the LED products. Ph 03 9328 1551. A lot of companies sell similar LED board but most are sold only as part of a lightbox system with a proprietary aluminium framing included. Basecamp were happy to supply the board only.
