Resistor fix | ||
@Ray, it's simple enough to remove the resistor and replace it with a higher wattage resistor. Be sure to leave the leads long -- 1/4" to 1/2" (or 1 cm) -- so that the resistor sits higher off the PCB. You'll be surprised how much cooler the resistor runs, just from being spaced above the PCB. But you probably cannot do this with the stock resistor. | ||

PLENTY BRIGHT -- CAN YOU HEATSINK THE RESISTOR? | ||
Is there a way to heat sink the resistor to avoid that WARNING? | ||

Versatile great light package | ||
I ordered just one to see how it is, I ended up putting it on my autonomous arduino controlled tank. When it senses a dark area, boom boom on go the lights. Im just using a 9v to power it and you dont want to stare at it. Also rigged it so that I can take it off the tank with its own power supply and use it as a hand held. That is how I made use of the dual power input ends. | ||

Great LED Boards | ||
I received 10 of these today and it did not take long to test them and find out they are a nice unit. The ones I received are a little different than the picture on this site, but they work great. Mine have one resistor at one end. A great feature is the + and - trace also run directly to the other end. This makes connecting several together very easy. As for brightness: You do not want to look at them for very long with 10 volts applied. Even brighter with 12 volts applied. Color temperature must be close to 6,000K. They are very bright white. I can see many uses for these small modules. I think you would also agree they are a great LED board and would be very useful. | ||
VERY NICE OUTPUT | ||
I HAVE PURCHASED MANY OF THESE TO USE AS EMERGENCY LIGHTING. I USED ONE TONIGHT IN THE LATEST ICE STORM. | ||
