Mini lamp

If you're making a portable you probably need something to watch it on. (Unless you want to guess what's happening in the game, but I wouldn't advise that) Anyway, this forum is your "Hacking a pocket TV/screen" one-stop solution. Share your experiences and knowledge here.

Mini lamp

Post by jedi knight »

I got this at radio shack today. Could I use 2 of them instead of the white leds for the led mod?
Meh, I don't post much.

They're not as bright, consume more energy, and produce more heat than white LEDs. You might as well stick with the CCFL than bother installing those. If you're looking for cheap white LEDs (compared to RS's $3+!) check out the dollar shops (Everything's a Dollar, Dollar Tree, $1 Shop, etc.) in your area for small keychain flashlights and pull out the LEDS in a few of those.
