14. USING LEDs TO LIGHT MINIATURES. Compared to Standard 12 VBAC incandescent lights, LEDs use lots less power, generate almost no heat, and if correctly installed, burn much longer. However, LEDs require DC power where polarity (+vs-) is critical and require a current-limiting resistor. The class will learn how to set up and wire LEDs, some suggestions for mounting, and how to incorporate them into existing 12 VAC systems using either diodes or AC to DC converting bridges. Sources for all parts and supplies will also be distributed. Soldering iron is not needed for students, though teacher will use one for demonstration.
