    As a DIYer and a car guy (mostly jeeps) I'd really like to see a 12v DC version of this, or at least of just the circuit prior to soldering all the LED's in. I've really wanted to make my own light bar for a really long time, but I can't seem to find anywhere to get the materials, or set aside the time to figure out the correct schematics.

  • @electronicsNmore
    @electronicsNmore 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Great video as usual, but I'm not too thrilled having that many LED's in series. I like to make these LED bulbs using groups of 4 LED's in series, then place all the groups of LED's in parallel. Much better in the event one LED goes bad.

    • @mrjohhhnnnyyy5797
      @mrjohhhnnnyyy5797 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      electronicsNmore With this design, driver is basically a ballast. Actually it'll be most efficient when using as many LED's as input voltage makes possible. I've built 5 LED kind of night light, made the ballast for 18ma, it draws the same power from the mains as the one with 30 LED's running at the same current. Having strings of 4 LED's (like 5 of 'em) and running them at 20ma each will result in 100ma drawn from mains, which is not efficient at all (12W in 120V countries and over 20W for others)

    @Anujkumar-ce1fj 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    great as usual @kipkay but since you are using a resistor to drop down voltage to the req voltage it would not be efficient.
    instead use a outlet mobile charger which uses transformer to power the circuit and use 1w leds instead they are much brighter and easy. They are much more efficient.

    Watch out with different colored LEDs!
    The forward voltage of a white LED is abour 3.4V which in total will result in about 130V (the 38 LEDs are in series).
    if you use red LEDs with a forward voltage of 2.3V, you'd only get about 90V. And since the only current "regulation" that is used in the board is a resistor you'd drive your red LEDs with way too much current and destroy them
