evilc66 Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 The Arduinos are very cool if you want a good cheap project to keep you busy. With the release of the ALC module for the RKL and RKE, it's much easier to do the timed fades. Link to comment
plantarms Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 awesome, I am definitely going to look into that once I get my light built. Link to comment

scribbles Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 thanks for the quick reply, I have1 nano and 2 Pico’s I want to convert to led, I have been going through evils post over the last 3-4 days trying to make since of it., it think I am starting to understand what is involved except the dimming. And I can’t code so I can not use a controller. Link to comment
Monkfish Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 Here's my order: 1 Cree XR-E Q4 Star LED $8.49 3 Cree Royal Blue XR-E Star LED $25.47 1 3023-D-E-700P Wired BuckPuck, 700mA Output, DC Powered w/ Potentiometer $19.99 Subtotal: $53.95 Shipping: $6.00 Tax: $0.00 Total: $59.95 I have a 1.5A power supply I am hopping I can use since I am only running 1 buck puck now. I am going to try what I ordered and add more LED's If I need too. Still have to get a fan here locally and figure out an enclosure. This is how much the total cost for the light minus the PS?

evilc66 Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 Should be able to do that for even less now. LED prices have come down a little. Link to comment

Sunstar Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 I have a 1.5 gallon tank I might use to make a pico of, I have blue LED lights and I might consider getting a LED bulb, since we, in modern times have this sort of goodness. A few things to tide me over until th stress that is getting a 33 gallon can resolve itself. Link to comment
