lid nearly done - ignore the 2ft light unit on top, thats all i have for now - thats why making this unit
the 3 slats across is whre the 3 strips of leds will go
the led set i got
white light - full light , not dimmed
white light - dimmed to lowest
blue light - full light , not dimmed
blue light - dimmed to lowest
as u can see from the remote i have 20 colours to choose from - then i can customise the colours if i want to
a very nice project gavsuz.and its coming along very nicely,i do like the LED lights and i have been pondering whether to get some myself,im running striplights at the moment and it does get hot in the lid, the LEDs that your using...may i ask where you got them from?..please tell me.
..i like the idea that you can change the colours with the remote.im looking forward to seeing your project finished..
all finished now - my strip connectors turned up today so i could cut the strip to required lengths and rejoin
haven't got the perspex on the top - but it may grow on me as doesn't look too bad as it is
first a comparison shot of what it use to look like with old light unit on top - then new unit shot
You've done a smashing job, mate! I'm well impressed. I'm looking for something similar for my lid-less bowfront tank. Perhaps I'll do it myself... Or more likely find someone with some skill to do it for me!
