I'm still with ya all. Its been a real blur the last week or so. Today after visiting Washington amongst a few other places we were at Niagara last night. I honestly don't know what is happening there. Needless to say the boat trip didn't sink and the views were amazing.
We are in Detroit tonight with a visit to Henry fords museum and then back on the road. Dale. Where do you get one of those things in your picture from?
Wow. They lit up and kept on going. Now all I need is some sort of driver. I'm open to suggestions if anyone can help. This should work with 3 batteries in series with a buck driver. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Yes, you right. I remember reading some of your driver threads when I first joined BLF. So I'm sure you knew you're right. Regarding driver suggestions. RMM knows his driver stuff and I'm sure he will set you up with what he is sending to you. I think he has a couple bucks he designed that are up for the job. I really need to revisit those threads. I don't remember the diameter you are limited to. Other than his stuff, the 26mm HX-1175b1 seems to be a good candidate, but it won't have nice modes without swapping the MCU.
Thanks for the confidence vote ImA4Wheelr but my electronic knowledge is sadly lacking. I admire the likes of yourself and others the way you build and manipulate drivers to suit your needs. Ive left the leds hooked up together until the driver comes in to test it on the bench before I get to carried away.
This is the driver I have coming which will be run from 3 batteries in series at a maximum current of 5 amps.
Cheeky bugger. I wish there was maybe half a thou more tolerance everywhere. I may try and sand blast it to knock of the micro high spots of the machining to make it unassembler without destroying the reflectors.
It does look terrible though as it has marks in the finish all over it from deburring down inside.
Thanks for the kind offer but I believe Jack would only want to play with Lucy and Jack. Probably fetch the ball where lucy thinks its chase the ball and chew it up.
