Re: pic: 40-Amp Fuse Block

I had them left over from my computer so I gave them to the team. I got them off of svc.com($1.79), but most computer modding sites carry them. If you are looking for single LEDs, though, I would check out LS Diodes. They have the highest quality LEDs at the lowest prices.

Re: pic: 40-Amp Fuse Block

That's awesome! For a brief period of time, we had two 12V neon computer lights, but they no longer work. The converter or whatever it is broke I think (those lights need high voltage)...probably when it arched and burnt my finger!

Re: pic: 40-Amp Fuse Block

Last year, we had four 12" neon tubes mounted on our robot - two red and two blue. We swapped the connectors between matches so only the neon tubes that matched the rotating light would be on during the match. It was actually quite cool-looking.

Re: pic: 40-Amp Fuse Block

we plan on putting neon tubes connected to a beat box so our robot glowes everytime it hits something.
