| Rog02:
Another post in the Gallery section reminded me of this little circuit I R&Ded (R&D actually stands for Rip-Off and Duplicate) a few years ago. All credit for this information goes to Jim Weir, Master "Avionicer" at KitPlanes Magazine. For a full list of his articles and the information needed to duplicate the circuit artwork go here first. You may even find something else you deem as useful project. http://www.rst-engr.com/kitplanes/index.htm LED Driver Article #1 Sept. 2000 Simple LED hookup for annunciator lamps (idiot lights). Pretty simple actually but a good read to bring you up to speed on LEDs and why they can be a better alternative to incandescent bulbs. http://www.rst-engr.com/kitplanes/KP0009A/KP0009A.htm LED Driver Article #2 October 2000 A pulsing circuit for running LEDs at a higher output, also allows for adjustable dimming. I have built this circuit a few times to drive "post lights" (instrument lighting). I just followed Jim's article and when done soldering, every thing worked as advertised. http://www.rst-engr.com/kitplanes/KP0010/KP0010.htm |

Hey Roger, I'll have to sift through this stuff. I'm building some Running/brake/turn signals to my sidecar project. I am going to use Led's. And I know absolutley nothing about them :bang: Never been schooled in the ways of the electron :zap: I'll start a new post if I run into problems. Wes |
