How to Make a Super-bright LED Light Panel (for Video Work Etc)

Here's how to make a super-bright LED light panel. It's equivalent to a

1000w incandescent light bulb, and it's super useful for video work as it has a daylight colour temperature and doesn't use PWM for dimming. There are 900 individual LEDs in this panel, which is why it's so bright.

Here's a list of parts:

3x 5m 'natural white' 5050 LED strips:
