So I am a beginner when it comes to flashlights.
Up until this point I have bought any flashlight which makes me go WOOO.
My question tonight is, "How do I begin?", espcially with drop-ins.
Does anyone have any information on how I can go about making one?
Are there threads on here or people that can help.
In my early years I studied Avionics engineering so I know my way around electronics.. But.. like anything..
You need to learn where to start from.... And at the moment I have no idea.
If anyone could help point me in the right direction, I would greatly appreciate it.
Eg. Do people make up their own PCB boards and go to local shops and buy their own resistors and diodes? Or... Do they normally buy a reference board from somewhere and solder in the LED?
