Making LED Lamp using Cellphone Charger
A plug-in type powerful wall LED lamp can be built at home by using a few white LEDs and by powering it through a cell phone charger. The power from cell phone charger is around 6 volts at 500 mA approximately. Why use a Cell Phone Charger The supply from a cell phone charger may […]
Sequential LED Array Light Circuit
In this article I have explained how to make a sequential LED array light circuit with an sequentially illuminating LED forming a bar graph kind of LED formation. Introduction In this article I have explained a simple method of making an incremental LED light using the IC 4017, which is rather equipped with specifications not […]
Converting a Dead CFL into an LED Tubelight
You might have already read about this interesting idea in many different sites. It’s about converting a dead CFL into a sleek LED tube light circuit. In this post I have explained the procedures with more details. How many times did you throw away a dead or over used faulty CFL unit into the dust bin? Well, we do […]
Transformerless Current-Controlled LED Bulb Circuits you can Build at Home
In this post I have elaborately explained how to build simple transformerless LED bulb circuits using many LEDs in series and powering them through current controlled capacitive power supply circuit. Warning: Circuits I have explained below are not isolated from mains AC, and therefore are extremely dangerous to touch in the powered and open condition. […]
