Small light bar ( work in progress)

g7mjv · Nov 28, 2007

l'm a member of an emergency comms team and occasionally it's helpful to have some strobing amber lights.

l've started this project using 3 watt amber prolights mounted on a 3 sided 1.5" ali extrusion.

Coolio. I've been wanting to do a project like that for a long time. Unfortunately, the project (and thus the cost) gets over-inflated before it even gets from my brain to paper.

Excellent Work!

I would love to get a Tomar LED light bar and create my own flash patterns!

That's a great start and good looking project!!

What kind of lenses is that you are using on the stars? Those look like the cat's meow for alot of undercabinet type LED lighting projects. Where did you buy those at? Cree or Seoul stars too?

What are you using for a strobe circuit? I've been wanting to build something similar for a while

Thanks for the compliments

They are 3 watts prolights with 45 degree colimators.
My intention is to fit more prolights, probably a total of 6.
l have a circuit that switches some smaller leds but the switching transistors are only supposed to be good for 700ma so l need to look further...

My circuit uses copper strip board with horizontal strips
