[PSUBS-MAILIST] PSUBS light project status

Alan,

The simplest thing to do with my design is to change one of the resistor values for the current required by the Vero or any other LED with the same current.

This resistor controls the current through the LEDs and is independent of the input voltage and within certain limits independent of the LEDs forward voltage.

Thanks,

Ken

Hi Ken,

I am running a 48V system & haven't found a suitable led driver

for that input that will run the vero 29 or other 36V leds. 

Would it be difficult to adapt your driver design to a 48V input?

I was looking at this switch mode regulator as a possible candidate.

I believe you are designing a boost / buck system. I am not sure how much

extra circuitry is involved in the boost side. Will it be possible to

simply eliminate the boost circuitry when copying your design?

Cheers Alan

To all,

My wife has been cleared of cancer and I’ll be back on the LED project, starting tomorrow.

Sorry to drop out for so long,

Alec, I was doing the 1 arm can for the light and Ken was doing the electronics.  Ken bailed out so unless someone steps up to take over the LED driver side of the project, we are dead in the water.  If someone could source a small OTS LED driver, I could go forward.

Hi gents,

I have an almost-ready sub but no lights, so was wondering whether to make them per the PSUBS-designed model in the community projects section of the website. I'm in awe of those drawings! However, they show a printed wiring board that is a placeholder for a part still to be designed. I was wondering if that might have happened, or if there might be an ETA?  

Thanks,

Alec
