> There are a few resources out in the ether to help with LED > projects. A > couple I use are: for folks who just want a good quality ready-made LED flashlight, check out www.flashlights.com i've used their Stylus series LED lights at work with great success ... the white LED light doesn't change the colors of wires inside computers and on the backside of patch panels, which is helpful when you're trying to decide what wires go where in the dark. ;) older incandescent bulbs tended to blur some of the wire pairs to these old eyes. it has twist-on and push-button on. anyway, some of the other guys at work took interest and got some of the same Stylus lights and one guy left his on top of a switch over the weekend ... monday morning it was still running. :) so far, the batteries last about a year in these things, and that's being used several times a day at work. i carry mine around in my pocket (gotta keep up the geek image!), and keep one in each of the cars. the goose-neck one is good for the car, cause you can bend the neck into a hook and place it wherever and that leaves both hands free. :) good luck! unca joel |
