lights on robots

[savage]

I'm wondering if you are able to put lights on the robot if they run off of 12v

will the work from the circuit panel and what fuses should i use

and if any one has pics from old robots can you please Post them

Yes, you can use that as non-functional decorative parts...

Non functional decorations can receive power from an 20 or 30 amp auto resetting breaker. Last year we used about 40 blue ultra-bright LEDs for robot under bodies. Are you interested in pictures of how things were hocked up or what types of lights were used?

Our robot is gonna be decked with christmas lights!!!!! If we go to nat's find the christmas tree, and thats our bot....


Just kidding by the way. Just a little dream of mine if our bot ever has extra weight. (never gonna happen though, but a man can dream....)

Yeah, we had some LEDs running off a 20 amp, wired as a relay thats always on in the code.

you can even use the lights that go on cars that you can find at pep boys or auto zone in the performance sections of the stores. I have always wanted to use those kind of lights but weight has never let us, and my car is wayyy to crappy to ever think about spending money on them.
