    I wonder

    For me it's the good tool thing ; I want the best tool for the job that I can afford. We all remember the experience of grabbing the old Eveready Captain out of the drawer and shaking it to get a tiny, yellow glow from it. Then when the Mags came along thinking "Finally, one that works when...

    Attention Digital Logic Gurus - Flashlight Mod related questions

    <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Good topic! I have been thinking about starting a similar thread and still might do so if this one doesn't get sufficient attention. One approach is to use the momentary switch as an input to a digital logic IC. This may sound like a complicated solution but...

    Tiny switches

    <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">I was gonna mention the Photon III set up, it's pretty sweet that they can cram all of those features in that small package, reminds me of Heather Locklear. Oops, off topic. I guess we should reverse engineer on of those babies. Er...... lights.

    Tiny switches

    <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Glad someone finally commented on that!! It sounds like my best bet is going to be to live with a larger on/off type switch because the circuitry would be too involved for my limited cranial capacity. Actually my main concern is with the switch being robust...

    Tiny switches

    Here's another question for you electronics geniuses: how do I add a tiny on/off switch into an LED circuit? Appearantly, the manufactures can't make a really small click-type switch because the mechanism is too large to fit in the case. There are momentary contact switches that are tiny...

    Running LEDs on 120V AC

    Hi guys, As a newbie I pose a basic question: is it best to use a transformer to lower the voltage first, or is it possible to just use semiconductors to do the job? I know you have to change to DC, but how about the voltage? I'm trying to minimize the weight and size. That's why I want to...
