Just wanted to share something I made for a friend (surprisingly not for me first). My second version of an automotive single filament 1156 bulb modded with a Q1H. Only difference from this version and version 1 is the heatsink slug potted to the bottom of the luxeon.
I will post some beamshots, or should I say of them being in use, after they are installed. I also made him some fender sidemarker turnsignals using amber Star/O's which I will also post pics of when I see him.
Parts used:
Stanley (Japan) 1156 Bulb Base
Q1HW Luxeon Star
Elektrolumens Ground Star
Solid 6061 Aluminum Rod 1/2" (coudn't find 9/16" which is a better fit)
1W 22ohm resistor (estimated 407.73ma)
26awg Teflon wire
Artic Silver Epoxy
Devcon 5min. Clear Epoxy
Appreciate any comments/suggestions. thx for viewing
