DIY LED Light with 4ch Remote Control (improved) (MEHS) Episode 59 

Damn you're so good at Soldering.. I'm getting jealous

that's awesome, good job 👍

Very interesting

If you make the same unit but with 10 strips on channel one , 5 strips on channel 2, 3 strips on channel 3 and 2 strips on channel 4 you can get 15 different brightness levels with the same parts just by turning on and off the 4 channels. More control same parts. You can turn on almost any number of strips from 2 to 20.

You still owe us the battery backup part (I was paying attention on earlier video). I've been looking for the best diffuser for some projects (mostly light strips in corner angle channel to mount up where ceiling meets wall, run my wiring through attic) and got interested in Fresnel Diverger lenses as the most efficient type (rather than lose efficiency by randomly scattering that a sanded surface would create including a lot of lost backscatter). Only thing I've found are called Wide angle fresnel sheets for car windows when backing up that come in 8"x10" sheets (amazon, aliexpress). I'm hoping they work (different from a magnifier or its reverse, collator). Also just thrilled by the way you do your projects, thinking them through as I try to do, your particular way of communicating is very clear to me. In fact, you remind me of the F1 mechanics explaining things; they really know their stuff but always need to think conceptually on the fly so their explanations are clear and communicate the principles as well as details in a terse manner.

hi, i have recently built a led light from a octagon and led strips and after 2 mounts of fiddling i have found a way to dim the led's with a remote using the controller out of a mi light led bulb (the mi light controllers have scan lines but the controller out of the bulb does not) i made a video showing how to connect everything. hope it helps

Nice video - thanks. would a regular 12V car battery work to power this? Can you give any details of exactly what power supply you did use?

One of the best DIY videos I've seen on LED panels, however... Instead of being able to turn each section of, I would be very interested to hear if you know how to dim the lights instead without flickering and without overheating issues, which some of the other LED panel DIY tutorials suffer from. :-) Keep up the great work - you seem to have a talent for making these kind of videos. If you don't mind me asking one off-topic question: What mic and camera are you using?

If you have access to an old laptop you can always grab the diffuser from behind the screen.

How would you make one with LED lights that change color and have a remote?

Michael can you make this into a flexible LED mat instead? I would like to try to make one for videos but want a portable option...actually foldable. Thoughts? Thanks.

how to buy a rf pair TX-Rx otherwise how to make it home maid

Y u cannot make rechargeable for this

sticky backed velcro would have easily sorted out that diffuser panel.

you need to atleast mount them on an aluminum plate..... This is the second time I see you mounting them on a heat insulating flammable material, the absolute worst choice.
