THNX HMike and Adam- there lot of these available.
they would make some brake lights that would discourage ANY TAILGATER.
HAK
I didn't even look at mine yet. Maybe after I do that, I'll have a better idea what to do with it. How to get this thing into a keychain--that's the problem!!!!
I've seen some monster heatsinx around town. People are building this. I'll probably wait and see what you guys come up with before I scare off any tail gators n' such. I do live in Gator country, so I need to be careful. I'm still trying to stuff all them 24 little diodes into something.
Thanx for the pic. It helped. Do all them wires need to be hooked to (+) and (-) or just one wire on each? I'll have to take a peek at it. I don't even know where it's located yet. Can I turn that A140 on with the diode tray removed without blowing up the house?

Do you see how I clustered all three wires together? That's to carry 10 AMPS in those little wires. Strip, Twist and tin ---- that's not a dance............
HMike
I do that dance all the time.
HMike, what's your current regulated power supply looking like for this thing?
I need some options other than an ATX and a power resistor.
Stacking several AMC7135 boards would be a hassle.
These red Phatlight diodes make superb safelights for holography when using a green laser for exposures

That was the A130/A140.......... Does anyone know anything about the A230? Is it basically the same thing? Are there 24 puppies in there?

I 've only run this to 3 Amps with a bench supply, I have a 30V / 20 Amp fully regulated supply Iuse for bar modules. Ihavent tried it on this diode yet.
