With incandescent bulbs you could put a diode in series and it would last almost forever. Efficiency was probably really crappy, but it still gave reasonable (if a bit flickery) light output. I've run

And we have modern replacements for sampler diodes in the form of low voltage low capacitance microwave mixing diodes. Although Avago (old HP and now Broadcom) has discontinued theirs, they are still

The failure mechanism in an incandescent light is mainly related to filament thinning as the tungsten evaporates slowly and is deposited on the inside of the glass bulb. Eventually, the inrush current

About 40 years ago an engineer at Stanford University demonstrated the importance of running florescent light fixtures in a three-phase pattern where the three tubes in a fixture were connected to

Hi, I thought that I recalled some discussion on dismantling these A and B time-base knobs safely, but I can't find it now. My problem is that I have a 466 which looks to be fine so far, except for

On my solder station bench I had a drafting lamp with two 20 w tubes that were a real pita. I really liked the fixture so I replaced the tubes with dual row led strips powered by a adjustable 12v

I'm not sensitive to flicker, but the point sources from undiffused LED arrays like our new street lights or security lights really hurts my eyes at night. -Dave To: [email protected] Sent:

I made a fixture years ago for working under the car at night.? Three 150W bulbs in ceramic bases.? Not only could I see everything, but it warmed up the carport in the winter!? ?? CFLs are

Correct. Craig

According to an EU study, which assumed only 20% recycling, CFLs still release less mercury than incandescent bulbs, if you account for the mercury emissions by coal power plants which made up about

This might have been off topic, but nonetheless interesting reading. I have been switching to LED lighting for about 4 years. My new lab and shops are 90% LED. I am impressed with how much light the

LEDs don't flicker when fed with clean, filtered DC. The light fixture in my bedroom has three LED bulbs under the ceiling fan and they don't flicker under normal usage. Just before they fail, I have

Many years ago when I was a 'lecky, I worked on a very expensive lathe light fitting that was using fluorescent tubes. I was amazed that a lathe actually had a fluorescent fitting because of strobe

Since fluorescents fire on every half cycle, the Niagra ones would have had a 50 Hz flicker. Many people can see that. British and other countries have a 100 Hz flicker, supposedly not visible. US and

The LED itself, looking at the actual part, puts out a monochromatic light (with the exception of the blue/violet/UV/white which is essentially UV exciting a phosphor). The on/off ratio of a pulsed
