#StarWars #DeathStar #Tutorial
There are many iconic images from the Star Wars universe, but one of the most iconic is obviously the big space ball known as the Death Star. Many of you have asked how to wire the LED filaments, so I made this project specifically to include a tutorial for how to do that. This is only for 12V LED filament bulbs. Please do not attempt with anything other than 12V bulbs.
And yes, I have seen Star Wars before. I understand that there are converging lasers at the base of the main laser when the Death Star fires its super weapon. I will try to figure out ways to accomplish that next time.

Also to anyone that decides to build this to keep in mind..... on the LED filament... there is a small hole on one side that’s how you tell the difference between negative and positive leads

I've only just started working with leds/lighting of any kind and it still scares me half to death. Watching you dismantle a bulb and rewire it gives me the (envy) spooks.

Another fantastic build! Looks awesome! For the converging lasers try electroluminescent wires. EL wire. Might need a little bigger model but might get the look you want.

would it matter me just wiring the filaments straight up to a usb cable without the driver? feel like its only needed for the switch no?
@IconicProps
@IconicProps 3 жыл бұрын
The driver probably changes the output. You can test the output of the usb with a voltage meter and compare it to the driver output. If the driver has the same out put, yes, you are correct, you can wire it straight to the usb.

Excellent video and tutorial. I just took one of these bulbs apart and in my haste, I managed to damage two of the filaments. That is to say, the outer part of the filament was quite delicate and while I was cutting it off the tree of wires that it’s mounted on, this outer shell split. I don’t suppose this outer part is repairable with clear tape? Still, I managed to get four filaments out and the driver works really well. Can’t wait to use it.

Very cool project. Amazing job. Have you possibly given thought to running the secondary wire alongside the led? Since the amperage is so low with one led, you could possibly use a piece of extremely light gauge copper wire that is insulated with the enamel coating. Some of those wires are as fine as a hair. Perhaps a future project.
