LED Strips

[WT CLASS 2-6-4T No. 4]

Lads Home store and More have these at €2.99 each. ATTACH=CONFIG]26024[/ATTACH]

 

There are 30 leds on self adeshive strip and a battery box with on off switch. Ideal for coach lighting.[

Were you planning to use the excess strip or just cut it to the length required for one coach? The only downside I see is the size of the 3xAA batteries which is bulky. Might certainly have an application in lighting buildings or platforms where the box could be concealed though

I'm planning to cut the strip into lengths to match the coaches and connect in series with a resistor to use track voltage for power. There's copper tags each side of each led to allow for soldering. I'll use the battery box for something else in the future.
