well that was EASY, thanks MIKE
i just finished mine in 45min
after 45 min in rs
i put in 4 turquoise 10*
and 4 red-orange 8*
makes for a weird but bright light
the color of the both of them isnt bad when combined
one is blue green the other is yellow red
both bright types
so i can actually see all colors with it mostly
as you would suspect there is a big red-orange spot in the center and a green spot on the outside, somehow they manage to end up all in the same place like instead of spread
i poured epoxy in the battery hole after i checked the wiring, solidifying the whole thing. (plug the end hole)
the box is not a perfect thing, it wouldnt survive getting rolled over by a wheelchair
the switch is built in
and the springs could potentially let the batteries slop around a bit when impacted
the wiring for me was 3 nimi 1600ma on the cyan leds
and
when i couldnt find a resister i resigned and put the orange on 2 of the 3 batteries
when its ON the voltage is about 3.6 and 2.4 as one would expect
the amps is uhhhh
.79 or 2hours run time on the one i made
it also allowed me to test a theory
that cyan (which is a very bright led)
and red-orange (which is also very bright)
would give capacity for a pretty wide spectrum and some parts of it the color of incadescent light
