    Wiring LEDs with differing voltage/current

    Thanks for the feedback. I think I am just going to end up running them all at 30mA, and hoping the whites are bright enough.

    Wiring LEDs with differing voltage/current

    I'm a total newbie when it comes to this stuff, but I'm working on my kiddo's Halloween costume and had some questions about wiring two different types of LEDs together to a single on/off switch. As of right now I'm using 4 x 5mm Super Ultra-bright white LEDs: Forward voltage: 3.4 VDC...

    Magician in need of a beam...

    Ideally? The vision in my head? If I could snap my fingers and make it happen? It would look like the Luxor hotel, on a smaller scale. http://youtu.be/-PxSPibCNCo The question is how difficult it would be to create a facsimile of it on a smaller scale. Again, I'm clueless about it, but in...

    Yes, absolutely, and it doesn't need to be a rectangle. A circle would be fine, provided it was wide enough to not just look like a flashlight on a table, haha. Do you really think a grid of mag lites would give me a visible beam? I'm not opposed to the idea, but I really wonder if it would be...

    Magician in need of a beam...

    Hmm, I just typed out a response and it killed it for some reason. Weird. Anyway, thanks for the response. In the process of searching the forums, I came across the maxabeam, of course. It seems a little overkill and pricey, though I guess I could be fooling myself if I think I can get what I...

    Magician in need of a beam...

    So I'm not sure this is the place for this, but you all seem like you have an affinity for creating beams of light, and I thought I'd give it a shot. As the title says, I'm a magician, and I am looking to create a table capable of producing a short beam of light. I've been told that it would be...
