OK Everyone's back from TW where you all had Halloween OVERLOAD...
Time to get back to creativity...
I'm working on a project and utilizing LED lighting throughout.
I was at Harbor Freight and ran across a 12 volt LED spotlight for car use.
When I plugged it into a transformer it didn't light. (no self respecting Haunter ever READS the directions!!!)
There is a switch on the base under the magnetic holder. The packaging states it has rapid, interval or constant beam! BONUS!!!
Hit the push button and it's a fast strobe, second push gets you a slow strobe, third push for constant light!!
Only drawback is that with a loss of power it returns to the off position so you would have to cycle through it you want constant light.
Unit has 17 LEDs, it's own housing and a 6'9'' cord. All this for about $5.00!!!!
Here's a challenge...anyone that is a bit more electronically adept, (and has a little more time) how about a quick method to bypass the switch so it stays either strobing or constant??
Here's the link in case you don't have a Harbor Freight nearby:

I like the little spotlights that are now available, but these can easily adapt for areas where you need a larger light wash.
Let's be creative!! Any other cool ideas out there??
Back to work...
