Don't use clunky relays, 2N2222 transistors are plenty of dirive for most LED projects. Hi Jason! Clunky relays have their uses. I'm hoping to use 3' to 4 ' of LED tape in my voyager for the main and secondary hull lighting. That's anywhere from a third of an amp to a half amp of current. Don't kno...

Hi Redag! I'm going to be using arduino to light my Voyager build. Like what others have said, you need the arduino to do signaling/control, and use relays and single mosfet or transistor circuits with separate power in to step up the current or voltage. There are boards made to do this, called LED ...
