The speed nut sounds like it will work well, but will it hold ~20lbs? The light is a 24" aqualight pro, kinda heavy.
I dont think vice grips will cut it, I'd be too afraid of knocking into them and having the light come crashing down.... speaking of which, maybe I should put a spring around the threaded rod.
I'm looking to do this, because I'm attaching two 24" aqualights to my hood, and I'd like to have a way to lift them up and out of the way so that I can get into the tank.
Thanks for all of the great ideas, keep em coming! The next step may be to motorize it, hehehe.
