Are they? That's a great idea, I've actually got some lying around somewhere. That would make it even easier. Thanks for the suggestion.

No, segmenting is a wood turning technique to turn, normally, bowls and vases out of "bricks" of wood. I wanted to make the body of a lighthouse with this technique, I attached an image so that you can see what I mean. (I thought I was coming up with an original idea but obviously someone else...

Hi Imageel, Here is the link to the LEDs https://amzn.eu/d/0Gq2NDh And these are the specs Wattage = 0.25W , Voltage = 4.5V Many thanks.

I see I get it now, when earlier they suggested to wire the LEDs in series they meant in series with their respective resistors! Makes sense now. Thanks a lot, very helpful.

That's great, thanks for clarifying! Sorry if I'm being a pain but could you please also confirm that this would be the circuit I should go for? Just want to make sure I'm getting everything right.

Hi Martin, thanks for your reply too! Would your power supply be just an alternative for the 12V DC wall-wart gcusick suggest before you? If I were to use a 12V spotlight and 3x 4.5V LEDs, would you recommend using a 25-26V DC power supply? Many thanks for the input. Dom.

I knew it wouldn't be as straightforward as I thought! Thanks for the help gcusick and porker. And fireburst and spectric too. I guess I'll start looking around for 12V spotlight then! (Although from a quick search I'm under the impression they won't be as bright?) So you suggest wiring the...

Trying to get a hold of Rexon with regards to a disc and belt sander that I've bought for cheap but can't get a working phone numbers. A long shot, I know, but do you remember what number did you use?

Thank you for your reply, it sounds like I was on the right track. So, bearing in mind the specs of my mini bulbs [ Wattage = 0.25W , Voltage = 4.5V , hence I = 0.25W / 4.5V = 0.056A ], it sounds like I'll need a Resistor = (220V - 4.5V) / 0.056A = 3848 O. Do you approximate up or down? And...

Hello, new to the forum and not totally sure in which category I'm meant to post this, so feel free to move it around as appropriate (if that's a thing). I've got a new project in my mind (haven't we all) and I need some help with wiring; I know this is a woodworking community, but I'm sure...
