wasting their time really...I cant read it. In fact I thought my eyes had gone funny

I'm glad you were able to get all the LEDs lit and keep the current requirements down and still have a great model. I assume that the kit was permanently mounted to the wood base first and you then drilled from the top down. Are there points on the kit for mounting lights? The underside of the base...

Ok So here is the back of the board. It is wired in groups of three LEDs and a resistor,all in series and then all the groups linked in parallel http://www.planet3earth.co.uk/WIRING%20back%20of%20moonbase.JPG The drawing pins just hold the wire down. I did not have enough wire of the same colour to ...

Well here it is lit. https://www.flickr.com/photos/152476394@N07/35802167746/in/dateposted-public/ All the LED's came on first try :shock: Still need to light the Domes and moonbus. I tomorrow will take Pix of the wiring on the underside. The power supply is a variable plug in 500 mA the LED,s work ...

It is a brilliant Idea :idea: , And I wish I had thought of it :8) and tried it... I have gone to far to change the LED stuff now having already spent £ in it... I do however have a 'Test' lunar surface I made first that I could try your Idea on. and if id did work well...(as good as or better) at l...

Thanks Again.. It was actually Solution 0 on the (wizard) calculator, not 1. So do you think I should go get the resistors recommended and go for wiring set up it gives?? The wizard says: In solution 0:•each 120 ohm resistor dissipates 48 mW •the wizard says the color code for 120 is brown red brown...

Hi Guys Thank you all for replying.. Firstly yes there are 81 Lights all over the moonbase you can see them all lit in the studio picture here. :shock: http://www.planet3earth.co.uk/144%20scale%20Tyhco%20MOONBASE/STUDIO%20%26%20STARGAZER%20MODEL.jpg And yes, I have couple extra in each of the domes ...

Hi Guys.. I need some help as I have never had so many lights to light together, before on a model. I am finishing my build of my own kit, The Tyhco Moonbase. http://www.planet3earth.co.uk/144%20scale%20Tyhco%20MOONBASE/Copy%20of%20P3110017.jpg It has some 85 lights on it, for which I am using small...

Great game on.

Jen would not do a model.. She just enjoys seeing finished ones.

Is there a ladies section in starship eg ... "but I still have not heard from BLoSSM," and " Rule 9) Members of BLoSSM"

that Jen should join ?

I will give it a go....

wife Jen Trillian here would prob like to judge. How would that work with me in ??



Just to be clear you mean standard ceramic dinner plate... Or plastic picnic one

I would love to go.............Would any of you guys be willing to help out a lille ole Limey
