Headlamp

[pinkpanda3310]

After sending this light to Japan I got a request from my niece to make a headlamp.

I started with a heatsink and some components and went from there....

Thanks. Yeh, headlamps don't really need to be all that bright for practical use. This one has thermal ramping so you don't end up with a branding iron on your forehead :-D

nice! What driver did you use? Are the 3 leds in parallel or series?

I need to make a new head lamp as I think I must have left my last one on the engine of my friend's car after doing some work on it It'll be a fun project when I get round to it.

now you need sunglasses to cut the glare

Leds are in parallel. Driver is a TA driver running Narsil, assembled and sold by Lexel.

Thanks guys
