Inside a newer flame effect LED lamp.

It's a year since I looked at the first of these that appeared on the market, so it seems a good idea to make an update with a new version now that the circuitry and effect has evolved. It's pretty good.

Just got mine in from China! Ordered Green and Blue and got matching USB leads of course (no pink! Sorry Big Clive!) Nifty tip with the US style screw in bulbs, if you pry the bottom connection out and widen the hole in the base of the screw terminal, you can run the usb cable through it and tie a knot for some strain relief. This will also prevent people from accidentally screwing it in to a live socket! Thanks for the video!!

2017-12-23 12:44:01 +0000 UTCHeh, how about I do proper research. SMD2835 according to one listing.
2017-12-19 19:18:38 +0000 UTCWhat is the LED module type (size) in these? I have an idea I would like to try.
2017-12-19 18:57:32 +0000 UTCSuper cool! Had to order a couple of these to try out myself. - might have to work one into an industrial lamp as it could be perfect effect.

2017-12-16 03:56:22 +0000 UTCI have never understood how hardware companies (which know exactly how easy it is to copy an electronic design) freak out about people taking their products apart. Unless they are potting their products, any interested person has access to their layout as soon as they ship publicly. The supreme irony is when a group copies/clones/is inspired by someone else's design and then gets uppity about it being taken to bits.
2017-12-14 15:52:10 +0000 UTCThe hiss is caused by the low load causing the switching converter to cycle on and off rapidly. It's annoyingly common in some plug-in USB chargers when the item they are charging is fully charged and the load is low.

2017-12-14 09:03:58 +0000 UTCAt the end of the video your power bank is hissing, I think it needs the smoothing cap in the supply.
