Description: People wanting a big light for their car: light bars exist now, cheaply and reliably amzn.to/2noXgNe Here's that neat 1150 lumen light: amzn.to/2xwQEUO FAQ's!!! Q: why are you only turning it on for short bursts? A: The reason is just that I only had one night with the camera guy to get all the shots and I was paranoid of losing battery. The other reason is that it's so bright that it's annoying and I loose the ability to see at night Q:Will it eventually overheat? A: No, it can run off a power supply continuously with a stable coolant temperature. Q: How long does the battery last? A: The small battery back I'm using is made out of batteries I already had, and they will last 6 minutes. A bigger battery is easy LED Chips: amzn.to/2uRv1Lu LENSES: amzn.to/2mdrAJN Resistors amzn.to/2iYhZIB I recommend using Boost converters to drive the LED's from 12v or so (No resistors, one per chip, can also drive the cooling stuff with the same 12v): amzn.to/2mdkt3Q Cooling Blocks: amzn.to/2lBbvkv Tubing amzn.to/2i4Aw6y Pump: amzn.to/2iYgryx Super neat pump/reservoir combo (much easier than hacking a bottle and much less likely to leak..) amzn.to/2lHT4dt Heat Exchanger: amzn.to/2j8efBx Batteries (3) amzn.to/2xosKKP (connect in series for direct drive w/ resistors, connected in Parallel for 12v system with boost converters) Super simple LiPo Charger: amzn.to/2meH7K3 **Don't over discharge your batteries! Research how to use LiPo batteries and monitor your cell voltage!! This product will monitor the cells and sound an alarm when they reach a low limit amzn.to/2lNiiYn Thermal Glue amzn.to/2jxiDOg SOLDERING STUFF! Simple and cheap but probably not crap: amzn.to/2iKX5J2 Another Cheaper option: amzn.to/2iKZiE4 My Favorite Hakko High End Station: amzn.to/2jppFBo 60/40 Rosin Core Solder: amzn.to/2iKZiE4 (I do not reccomend lead free solder) Extra Tube of Rosin is always nice: amzn.to/2k5vZRR Desoldering Braid is good to have around: amzn.to/2jANdp3 Helping hands are also wonderful: amzn.to/2k5ucw8 Here's an Imgur album of pictures taken that night! imgur.com/a/dz4y8 Yes I would like to have used constant current drivers, but those would take up space and money that I don't have. I made this back in February, but only got around to filming it a couple weeks ago. Thanks so much to Caleb Riston for the DSLR equipments and skills!
