  Here's an article about dimming fluorescents:

  Makes the ND filter ideas seem even better :)

  13Watts is a lot of power if you are running off
batteries. Reduced power consumption from dimming
might be a significant benefit.

  My Cabin Light panel is rated at 2.7W at 6V
and seems plenty bright to me. It's a real 5000K
light source too.
