    Project Lamplighter - my homemade LED keychain fob

    Here's a schematic I stumbled on that claims an average 6 microamps drain from a 3v supply. It does need a 47 uF cap, though. Probably be able to get the shelf life out of a CR2 with it. Low Power Flasher

    Project Lamplighter - my homemade LED keychain fob

    Hi Mike: That's cool! I love when I can re-purpose something as a housing for a project - probably explains why I can never get out of a hardware store in less than an hour. Random thoughts: For a locator, particularly a dim one, it might be easier to spot if it's blinking, which could...

    IR Filter

    I think the confusion is arising because some of the articles refer to slide (positive) film while others refer to print (negative) film. You want the film to be black when developed, so negative film needs to be OVER-exposed and slide film needs to be UNDER-exposed. If you get a roll of...

    Notebook modded with Cree XR-E, current regulated, infinite brightness levels.

    The backlight situation may be changing, though: Toshiba R400 Advantages of LED backlights are thinner displays, more even lighting and no mercury, according to what I've read. Nice job on your "notebook backlight", btw! Cheers, Bob

    Raw Ns Payments are now being taken.

    JUst received mine. Very nice packaging! The light is extremely well made and has a surprising amount of throw for such a tiny package. Very, very nice product. It looks small even compared to the CR2 Ion! Cheers, Bob

    Introducing a tiny handmade CR123 Titanium light

    Re: Introducing a tiny handmade CR123 Titanium lig Jochen: Rather than bore out a hole for the case, how about this: Use the same block shape with the stand groove on the top that you've designed, but split it horizontally and hollow out a cavity for the light. That is, don't drill a hole...

    BEAMSHOTS - UV miniHID and UV Mag85

    XPB: Thanks for posting your mod!!! I got the filter you recommended and it's pretty cool. The very small amount of visible light really enhances the flourescence. I found some stains on the spash panel behind the stove that must be 10 years old. Not "cleanable", so it must be some...

    The CR2 Ion Flashlight - News & Updates Thread II

    Re: The CR2 Ion Flashlight - News & Updates Thread Endeavour: Your suggestion about having somebody else mod them (for whatever) after delivery is an excellent one. Maybe somebody will set up a couple of group mods if several people wind up wanting one or two particular features that...

    The CR2 Ion Flashlight - News & Updates Thread II

    Re: The CR2 Ion Flashlight - News & Updates Thread Looks cool. I really like the tritium vials as a locator, though. Would it be possible to mill some slots in the head to accomodate them without complicating the fabrication or significantly raising the cost? I was thinking users...

    LED's In Exterior Car Lights

    Re: LED\'s In Exterior Car Lights ...and car wiring can be EXTREMELY odd. They will do all sorts of stuff to save a ten cent piece of wire. For example, the wiring may presume that the bulb can conduct current both directions (my motorcycle was wired like this). If one side of the bulb is...

    Introducing: iFlash-Design (Warning LOTS of pics)

    Re: Introducing: iFlash-Design (Warning LOTS of pi I'd know the light is on - maybe a better use of the switch LED would be as a locator beacon? I like the wood finish, or CF would be cool, too. Concur on an anti-roll design. Could use a lanyard attachment as well.
