Super Hard On Man

Truth, Justice and the 'Murican way.

Bloody simple and fantastic. I love everything about this.

[jkokura]

Yeah, I really like that one too. Superman's glowing eyes are an especially great touch.

Everything about this is great.

EVIL!!!!

[Vallhagen]

Luv it!

I like it minimalistic. Few knobs... or none at all:)

A hint if you don't mind?! If my eyes aren't fooling me, you have your LEDs in parallel after the CLR (correct me if im wrong)? It might be a bad idea. They need one CLR each, or put them in series. You may have luck and it work a lifetime, but the risk is high that you will wear out one or both "far too quick".

Cheers!

 In series one always illuminates more than the other so they are in parallel, after the clr.
Why would they each need a clr?

[Vallhagen]

Why would they each need a clr?

Basically because its a "forbidden" electrical action, as LEDs are not resistors, but rather constant voltage-components. A small difference in voltage drop between the parallel LEDs can cause a current rush through the weak of the two. I found this link during a similar discussion here, and it covers the most aspects:

Heh.

Maybe it's too many reports from certain parts of the UK, but I expected to see Ron Jeremy or something with a subject line like that!

Thanks for the link Bengt.
I see what it's saying, but think I'll continue to live dangerously. My clr is a high enough value that even if one led went, the other will be safe. I can see it would be an issue with a large number of leds sharing a single small clr value.

So as not to disappoint Allan:
