RE: "newbie" prop question
I also forgot to mention there is nothing to laugh at regarding your head conversion, many have tried this in frustration over the situation over plugs. There is no reason yours will not work, but as mentioned by gcb set it up to give it a fighting chance. But it is worth noting that the commercial conversion head works better in general and ends up costing less in the long run, and very little more to start.
