My new triple light, The Beast!!!!

[msxtr]

Hi, here my new triple light, very, very easy of doing, how you can see, I hope that like us

I have used a square tuve of 40x40mm and PVC tube of external diameter of 40x40mm too.

Now glued the PVC tubes to the aluminium tube

Inside view, I have used too a "custom" inside heatsink how you can see

Glued the 3 leds to the aluminium tube (I have used 2 Cree Q5 and 1 Cree P4, I know that have was better use R2 leds, but was that I had )

I make holes in the square tube and I have soldered the cables...

Now I have solder the cables to the swich, drivers and power conection, I have used 3 drivers to can use a battery of only 7,4 volts

Inside view, I have used too a "custom" inside heatsink how you can see

This looks even more terrible than my homemade 3-SSC-P4 . But it doesn´t matter . At night nobody can see if it is lowbudget and lowtime handmade or sinful expensiv ( I have forgotten the name of the manufactor ) .

Whitedog, Minutentourer Thanks to both for the comments, really it is easy of do. I know that the finished don't are goods...but the light are very functional, that was it that I wanted

Hey msxtr,

well done !

I would like to translate "manguera termoretractil" as soon as I understand the meaning of it

One questions and one suggestion in regard to your PVC tubing though:

Question: What kind of tubing did you use ?
Is this some sort of cable tubing ?
I mean typical electrical tubing ?

In general a pipe cuter helps a lot to do straight cut. Have a look here:

Or typically to cut anything up to 2.5 inch:

(heat) shrink tube, schrumpfschlauch

(kann man sich auch von "t(h)ermotractil" herleiten...)

 

[H-Ball]

@anonymfixer: OK, shrink tube sounds reasonable for isolation

 

[Das_Proletariat]

ja, ich hoffe, das bild auf dem man die schrumpfschlauch-stücke lose über den ksqs sieht, ist nicht der letzte stand... vielleicht sollte ihm jemand sagen, dass man das zeug erhitzen muss, damit es schrumpft

Erinnert mich ein bisschen an mein Mobdar Triple.
Nur ich hatte mehr Arbeit mit dem Gehäuse

Hi to all!!!!!!

Yes "manguera termoretractil" mean shrink tube, schrumpfschlauch

I have used PVC tube, normally it's to lead electric cables, I think...

I have used to cut the tube a similar tool how you show.
