Stern Flasher LED boards....

[Paul]

Hi all

Was looking at picking up the following, until i saw the price for what it was...



66 Euros for 6 delivered from Germany to the uk!

Does anyone know of any cheaper equivalents? Or specs (i/p voltage & max current)?? 22Ohm Resistors alongside a "Flash Lamp" unknown SMD LED.....

Cheers!

looks like my ledBar:

I have deliberately reduced current on mine so they are nice and bright for bally playfield inserts, but by changing the resistor, could make it super bright. the SMD Led i am using will draw 150mA and is pretty bright. (I used a warm white, but can also get cool white.

I would happily make some of those stern ones, if someone has a spare they can send me - so I can get dimensions and figure out how bright it needs to be. They'd work out around £1-£2 depending on how many orders we could get??

I dont have any unfortunately, however would be up for 16 of them for a "project" i'm working on...

Here's what a guy was saying on Pinside...

they're pretty easy to make. I used a 22 Ohm resistor and a STW8Q14C-V5W5 SMD LED. No idea if these are the actual LEDs as they seem a tad warmer than the ones Stern uses. As I said I'm no electronics expert, but I measured the actual flasher led with calipurs, used the resistor value (22r0), and just started narrowing down the results.

ok anyone got one they can measure for dimensions? also is it 5v or 12v?
