Finally did it! An internal RGB color changing switch module.
« on: April 15, 2012, 06:22:16 PM »
Most of the thanks must go to The_Night for inspiring me to create this. I tested it out on 3 separate 3watt leds and it works flawlessly. I will be posting a video of it in action as soon as I get the 9watt RGB leds I ordered last week. If enough people are interested in how to do this yourselves I will make a tutorial.

very nice. glad i was some inspiration  ;D

what kind of LED's did you use? the ones i was using couldn't mix more than once. IE i could get it to do cyan (blue and green) and red, but couldn't do say cyan and purple. the setup i use has a shared positive on all 3 dies and won't let it mix more that one way

Had the leds special order from China. I only got two to test out but if they work as well as I hope I will be purchasing about 25 more, most for projects and some to sell here on the forums. They are 3watts each die.


As soon as the less get here I'll update with new pictures and maybe a video.
