12 volt led lighting

When considering installing outside and garden lighting, the first thing many people think to light is their driveway. This is a bit odd when you think about it. Most people are in their car with the headlights on when they navigate their drive at night. So lighting your driveway is only really a practical necessity if you routinely walk along it after dark.

But outside lighting isn’t only a matter of practical necessity. There is undoubtedly a sense of opulence to a beautifully illuminated driveway, particularly if you’re fortunate enough to have a long one. The lighting turns your driveway into a landmark and creates a grand entrance, a celebration of homecoming for you to look forward to. It also provides visitors with the warmest possible welcome.

So what’s the best way to light your driveway? The answer to that depends on the driveway in question. If it has a high wall running along one side, installing wall-mounted spotlights or downlighters is an option. If the wall is low, you have the opportunity to install wall-recessed step lights just a few inches above ground level so they shine horizontal beams across the driveway. Spacing them so their beams do not overlap will create an interesting triangular pattern of light on the driveway’s surface.

But the most popular option for lighting driveways is bollards. The best of these project their light horizontally and downwards around 360° to illuminate the surrounding area. If you have a flowerbed beside your drive, you can use the spike mounted versions that install into soil. If you haven’t, the flange mounted versions install onto flat hard surfaces such as paving, block paving and brick.

If you own a period or rural property, you may feel that bollard lights look too contemporary and urban for your location. If so, you could consider bollards made from solid copper. These rapidly dull down and blend unobtrusively with their surroundings. In more contemporary locations, 316 stainless steel is a popular choice, as is aluminium which is available in a choice of powder coat colours.

The next issue to consider is the lighting technology you wish your bollards to use. If you choose halogen, you will need one or more transformers to take the voltage down to 12 volts. This needn’t be a problem because there are transformers on the market that can be buried out of sight in the soil if there is no convenient location to conceal them.

There is also a choice of energy-efficient bollards on the market. Some fittings can be used with 12 volt MR16 LEDs which use just 5 Watts of electricity. Alternatively, if you have mains wiring installed and are looking for a 240 volt solution, you can choose between bollards using a 5 Watt fluorescent lamp or the very high output 20 Watt metal halide lamp. Both these light sources are very energy efficient and have the added advantage of generating very little heat – useful if children play on the drive at night.

Finally, some people wish to install lights into the surface of their driveway to uplight trees or the architecture of their house. Clearly, these lights need to be robust enough to withstand being driven over. There are several on the market, including ultra-powerful architectural uplighters which, while capable of lighting tall buildings, operate at very low temperatures, making them particularly suitable for public locations where health and safety is a consideration.

Biorb 12 Volt Transformer Biorb 12 Volt Transformer
$20.99

All aquariums need electrical power to operate their lighting and filtration systems and most use mains electricity at 120 volts. This can cause serious electric shock should the Fishkeeper drop or drench the electrical items in the aquarium water. The Reef One range of aquariums is designed to be extremely safe and therefore all its electrical items operate at the safe low level of 12 volts ac. To protect the Fishkeeper and children from electric shock, biOrb and biUbe aquariums use a plug top AC transformer that plugs into your electrical main socket and 'steps down' the voltage to a much safer 12 volts AC. The 12 volts is made available in the bottom of the AC transformer through two din sockets. Either socket can be used for the halogen light wire plug or the air pump wire plug as both sockets are interchangeable. The LED light if used in place of the halogen light can be plugged into either socket. Product Features The Twin Outlet Transformer Unit delivers power to both the light and air pump using only one plug US Type 120 Volts

Basic LED, Potentiometer Question: Creating a Voltage Indicator….?

I have a 12 volt DC cooling fan that I am going to rig up to a potentiometer so that I can adjust the speed of the fan. That’s not a problem- but I thought it would be really cool to have a set of a few LED indicator lights based off of the voltage that would indicate the fan speed.

Example: As you increase the potentiometer, at 4v (the minimum for fan rotation) one LED illuminates, then at 6v another LED lights up, and at 8, 10, and 12 more light up.

Can you help me figure out a simple way to do this (or its equivalent) or is this going to be more work than it is worth ?

I work at radio shack, and am familiar with all of the parts, but I am having a hard time trying to figure out how to do this…

Thanks

its maybe more work than it worth, for two reasons:
1. contorling a motor’s speed doesnt done this way because you will need a high power potentiometer and also there is power loss on it and controlling the rotation speed is not linear also.
2. indication of a motor’s speed doesnt done by measuring the applied voltage, you can stop the rotation by your hand and there is still voltage on the motor so this way you not always going to get a correct answer.
to both operations be relible you need a pwm controller for driving the fan and a sensor like opto couplers to detect the rotation speed.
but if your case is not critical there is an easy way using two chips. a variable voltage regulator like LM317 to control the voltage and LM3914 that is a ten level dot/bar display driver to detect the voltage on the fan. for more information refer to their datasheets.
