Re: Feeler: full colour driver extension for the White Fusion kit
lousy no good for nuthin Backflash... i have a bag of LPC diodes ALL dead from backflash ****counting...**** 7 of them. what a waste. did it die because it had a dust cap on it? that was the reasoning for my backflashes, except for one... i shined my first red laser into a mirror :crackup: REEEEAAAAAL smart *doof!*
Anyways , FML, what would it take to get my hands on a proto-type for testing, I have two units im working on right now, and would be MORE than happy to record all results, and post back with pictures, measurements, and final results.
How can we make this happen? as im VERY excited, if it wasnt your design, i'd proto one myself, but i trust your cuircut skills a bit better than mine
and i dont wanna step on anyones toes (PATENT THIS if it ever gets printed on real PCB's)
ah, man, just such an amazing deal you got here man!!
Right now im using THREE RKCSTR drivers, and to save space, i never snapped the boards apart (dont know if anyoned ever bought a 10-pack of RKCSTRS b4, but they come in a nice straight brick of drivers you have to snap apart, blah blah) anyways, im using three of them all still connected (but isolated) to drive my lasers. (even the green, wich sucked... killed TWO 50mW modules trying to use my own driver) i just wanted extra space, thats all.
So does that seem like a good game-plan anyone? (if your building it slightly cheaper, the low power version) to use three rkcstr drivers all still together to save space... that takes up like... almost no room, its cool. I havent fit them to their final positions yet, im waiting on my new 50mW modules. i DO have a 100mW module... but it seems too fat to fit in the heatsink??? (kinda like an over-fat aixiz module) or Sure module) so i was gunna use that and tone it down, but it wont fit without me permanently pressing it into my awsome extra large green sink....
Any ideas anyone? just fishing for info
I chose not to use flexdrivers for two reasons, ease of use, and cost. but if anyone thinks im making a mistake, or could do it better somehow, please do share
im open to ALL knoledge, i cant wait to finish it!
(Jayrobs pool is cool enough... you dont need to add an awsome spyro-7-color to make it cooler!, jeez! now i'll never have a better pool than Jay!) lol, im J/P! Awsome pool Jay, i think a waterproof 7-color would be SICK underwater!!
And you dive dont you Jay? i thought i saw a photo in your album with you and soem gear on, maybe im wrong. but that'd be sweeeeet!
Thanks for any input in advance guys, ecspecially FML for being such a great help, plz let me know about the prototype, i have two units to test it on, i could try one acrylic, one metal
BTW: i just ordered a crap load of 50mW greenies from Susie, so Dark Lasers will have plenty of 50mW module stock for everyones 7-color builds!
just thought i'd let you all know, better than waiting 1.5 weeks for it. but susies a fast shipper too, so either way it works. but reguardless, they are available in two places now, my shop (USA customers only, im under contract with susie) and anyone international.. well, hit up susie
she'll take care of you.
PM me when you can FML, :thanks:!
