Projector HID arc light mounted into a desk lamp--- make money online

 

I combined the High Intensity Discharge bulb and power supply from an old LCD with a desk lamp to create a 270W spotlight. I bypassed the power supply's interlocks and shorted an optocoupler to cause the power supply to always turn the lamp on when AC power is applied. I used an inline power switch to control the device. The desk lamp's

existing wiring is able to withstand the high starting voltage of the HID lamp (probably a few KV). Once the arc strikes, the voltage is much lower and the current much higher.

hey everyone here's the project that I

built from an old projector this is an

ancient LCD projector so what I did is I

took a standard desk lamp and removed

the socket there and then replaced it

with the high-intensity discharge lamp

from the LCD projector and I used the

lamps existing wiring so let me turn

this on and while it's warming up I'll

open the box up and show you what's

inside the box there so I use this

cardboard box as an enclosure just

because it was available and it's

cardboard is easy to work with so here

we have the two boards from the original

projector and what I did was I bypassed

the interlock here it had both a thermal

interlock and a mechanical switch

interlock which I just shorted out and

then the actual power supply board for

the lamp itself had a optical input on

this side and if you look closely down

at the opto-isolator x' there you can

see I've shorted one out so that the

power supply board thinks that it's

always getting the signal to turn on so

surprisingly this lamp cord between the

power supply and the lamp was able to

withstand the high starting voltage I

think the starting voltage could be many

kilovolts but after the arc strikes the

voltage is pretty low and the current is

high and then I just used a lamp cord

with a an inline switch here just to

turn the whole mess on so this is a 270

watt light pretty bright

let me just aim it up at the ceiling

kind of see what that looks like when we

stop the camera down a bit

so you can see compared to what the

brightness of that fluorescent lamp

there the spot from the from the arc

grill from the arc lamp is pretty bright

so I mounted the bulb in there with some

silicone tubing and some wire and the

wire and silicone tubing can take the

heat but the paint inside the lamp

housing cannot so after it runs for

about five minutes it starts to smoke

and there's no cooling inside this

cardboard box so after it runs for a few

minutes I would suspect it's going to be

too warm in there too so this is kind of

a sort of a funny project just to

perhaps build a bat signal or something

like that alright see you next time byeTop Paid Keyword :  earn cash online, google make money from home, earn money online without investment by clicking ads, free earn money website, online money making jobs, earn money online without investment by typing, online work for money, best online earning sites, make money online with google, online earning websites, money making websites, online earning websites for students, invest online and earn money, best online money making, online money income, view ads and earn money without investment, earn money online by clicking, online money income site, money earning sites, online earning sites, best website to earn money,
