10 Watt RGB Flood Light

Red and Green are christmas colors!! I see no problems with missing blue!! ;-)

I hope yours holds up better than mine. I tried running the green and blue straight from the power supply from the light and it burned up the blue. Now I only have red and green and have not used it since.

Dumb question, but did you check the LED voltages before bypassing their board? My lights have a 600ma power supply and the LED's seem to be pulling the voltage down to the required point, but I did see other lights on ebay that came with a 1000ma supply. That might be enough to cause the need for a resistor on all three leads. I just lucked out and my power supplies all had their ratings labeled on them but some others dont.

Just went back and checked the page I ordered from and it was supposed to have a 1000ma driver, just did not get what was posted. Not smart enough to get the ebay page shown here, but search for item #260969208136 and look at the relisted item that might help getting you the right specs to work from. PS.-They do also list just the LED lights and if you look through them they show one with higher forward voltages.

couldnt resist any longer, hard wired the red and blue on direct and put all four in front of my house, the house is 85' long adn I spaced all four along the front. WOW I love it!!

Hi guys love this thread,
Ive been buying just the 10w leds by themself, an i also did some research on all the leds an posted it on my website http://smartaleclights.com/index.php...&cat=led-power
this is the info for the 10w rgb led:-
Intensity Luminous (Iv): Red 120-150LM, Green 200-300LM, Blue 70-100LM

DC Forward Voltage (VF) : Red 6-8V ; Green 9-12V ; Blue 9-11V

DC Forward Currect (IF) : 300 mA

I hope this helps people like this thread has helped me

PS has anyone found the right programmer for the 10w DMX RGB Led Flood??

Thanks Alec.

Is that thing just a DMX stream with a unique start address ala Tir?? If so couldn't one do a similar thing we are doing with the TIRs except without the serial number hoo-ha??
