I gutted the lamp of everything except the switch.

On the left, the USB cable, on the right a 3ft cat5 stranded cable. Im using the existing switch and cat5 due to the amount of wires.

The top of the lamp with the Cat5 ran. As you can see Im using the reflector to mount the leds.

Only one mounted, so I only wired in one resister. The rest of the wiring is there.

There really is no point, I guess its good for a lan party... I mean it does run off a USB port... :D

insignifigant compared next to my 2 million candle power flood lamp

(12v uses H3 fog bulb, which i switch to hyperwhite :))
 
Hah, i have the same lamp in silver, $9.99 at Target i believe. It's a sweet little desk lamp, but it does get really hot like you say:)
