    Students Building a Homemade LEKO / SPOTLIGHT

    I have a group of 7th graders that are looking to build a scale model of a LEKO / Spotlight. This will be much smaller that a true Leko, but they are hoping for the same functionality ( crisp edges with adjustable shape to the spot ). They will be using this on a fairly short scale of around...

    I have some students that are looking to build a home-made Leko / Spotlight like they use in theater / shows. It will be a smaller scale model versus the actual versions, but hopefully will have similar functionality. They were going to try some led flashlights as the base since these already...

    Narrow focused beam needed

    Another one that I found was the EDI-T t11. This looked like it was able to deliver as well and was only about $12. Thoughts on this one also? Also, I have been looking for this one online and can only find it one or two places and its out of stock. Ideas of where to find it as well?

    THANK YOU. Having the memory will be important for this project as once the light is turned on, they won't be allowed to cycle it through the modes. Does the Sipik have memory? We can spend a bit more than the $5. We want to save $$$ where we can, but definitely need function as well.

    Not a very big budget. $30 would be the ideal range ( or less ). Thanks for the starting point!

    Narrow focused beam needed

    I have some students that are working on a project where they need a fairly small, focused beam of light. The beam will need to be fairly focued with no spillover ( not too knowledgeable with the technical verbage ), and will need to be strong enough to activate a light sensor over the span of...
