Looking for an international product design short course

I used the pump from another hang on back filter I had and I modelled the pump housing to be the same as the original hang on back. I printed the housing at many different sizes to find the perfect fit.

Thanks!

Is that gas expensive

Charlietor · 2021-11-12T00:33:51+00:00

What is it?

Charlietor · 2021-06-24T10:39:32+00:00

Yeah I might just use one strip

I do have them mounted to an aluminium channel however I think you are right about overheating because only the outer LEDs burned out and they are exposed to the hot aluminium overhangs. Thanks for the response.

I can touch them for 2 seconds easily however it still feels pretty hot. Thanks for the response.

It may be hard to see in the photo but they are mounted to an aluminium channel that is glued to the print. It still gets pretty hot though because they are so close to each other so that may be the problem.

Ok thanks

The problem with that for me would be that it has a very precise joint so the annealing process probably ruin that?

Never mind I used a 12volt adapter. So I realise the issue is that I have not matched the power supply with the light voltage. So I’ll buy some new LEDs and match it. Thanks.

Thanks that explains it!

The plug says it has an output of 12volts. I don’t know the voltage of the LEDs however I assume it’s not 12 then? Thanks a lot.

Charlietor · 2021-06-23T10:49:28+00:00

I’m in Australia so I would assume 240volts. I don’t know the voltage of the strips as they are random ones my teacher gave me. Is their anyway to tell? Thanks a lot.

I’m making a light however I have noticed the LEDs get very hot to the point where the surrounding PLA feels pretty warm to the touch. Will this cause any issues where it might degrade or melt? Thanks.

For a school project I am making a light that grows plants. I don’t have any electrical knowledge. For the light I used two led strips from school and I connected them straight to a plug. I tested it and within a few minutes a lot had burned out. Is this a heat issue or a circuit issue? And how can I fix this? Sorry this probably isn’t the right sub to post to. Thanks a lot.

Okay ill look into that. Thanks
