Win a darkroom Timer/Thermometer and see how I made it

Ein Thermometer und auch ein Timer sind essentiell in eurer Dunkelkammer. Eine günstige Lösung dafür habe ich bei IKEA Gefunden. “Kolckis” leuchtet leider in unterschiedlichsten Farben, was natürlich zu Fehlbelichtungen führen kann. Deshalb zeige ich euch heute wie ihr Kolckis umbauen könnt, damit es nur rot leuchtet. Unter allen die meinen Youtube-Kanal abonniert haben und dieses Video kommentieren verlose ich zwei umgebaute IKEA Klockis.

English version

It is essential to have a thermometer and a timer in your darkroom. Ikea has a cheap solution for that, it is called “Klockis”. But it has one downside, it changes color when you turn it from one setting to the next one. This could cause fail exposures. Thats the reason I show you how to modify Klockis to just shine in red. I’m giving away two modified Klockis to subscribers of my YouTube Channel who commented why they need one.
