Working Lego lights DIY (EASY!)

[@epiccitybuilders]

I like this idea. Only difference I would do is add some heat shrink on one of the exposed wires to prevent a short.

[@nox5282]

Nice tutorial, some criticism. Should add some heat shrink to prevent shorts, also would been nice to see it light up

[@KosBrick]

Thanks for the tutorial, would love to make one! What power source did you use for one 3mm led like that, would you make a tutorial on how to connect to the power source too?

[@MrMYH1990]

you can use whatever power source you want.
it depends on how much LED's you want to use.
If you want i can make a video about it, just let me know what kind of source fits for you and how many LEDs you would like to have and i will help you out

[@KosBrick]

@@MrMYH1990 Thanks :) Lots of questions from an amateur like me, such as...How to use 2x AAA battery for 3mm led bulb? Can I use only one 3v bulb with that, do I need resisfor? Can I use 6 bulbs at the same time, is it series or parralel connection, how?

[@MrMYH1990]

@@KosBrick If you connect 2x AAA in series means 3V, and since a LED is an diode you need to limit the current to prevent short circuit, this will destroy the LED.
i recommend to place the leds in parallel, however, if you connect to much of them, they will become less bright.

@@MrMYH1990 Thanks a lot man, looking forward to see more led tutorials from you, especially for Lego or toys custom led, not much basic tutorials vids on those subjects for beginners 🙂

Good video! I'm just mounting several lights in my city, I have some bulbs like the ones in the video, to install 3 units should I put 3V in them? Thank you

Cool👍😎

[@Yogi8156]

I love your idea, but I think it's wrong to widen the holes with a drill.

[@anertan]

It's not widening, but opening the lamp post. Both sides are sealed with a thin layer of plastic

[@elliottharrisonellbot2814]

@@anertan he means that he thinks it's wrong to modify lego pieces

[@themightys1nclairs69]

Man modified Lego looks really cool! It's just a matter of devotion to a moc

[@stanislavpesek1213]

@@anertan do you know by any chance if there are more types of this lamp? Because guy on video drilled the hole so easily and i have my lamp thats same as his filled up with plastic inside... So i cannot drill the hole

[@Stefan-sc2wc]

⁠​⁠@@stanislavpesek1213 Try to use a very thin drill first. And rotate the post, not the drill, helps to keep the hole in the axle of the post. Parts like “3062,Brick Round 1 x 1”, “3957 Antenna 4H - Round Top” and “4032 Plate, Round 2 x 2 with Axle Hole” for example are useful to fix the post in your drilling machine.

[@JoeSeverino]

What LEDs did you use??

[@MrMYH1990]

i used a 3mm orange/yellow LED.

[@themightys1nclairs69]

You can use any led just make sure to add the respective resistors

[@Stefan-sc2wc]

I use ultra bright, pre wired smd LEDs with high resistor for low current and little heat distribution.

I hear the instagram puppy music but I don't see any puppies 🤔🤔🤔

[@hallofighter747]

Do you know wich male female plug BRIKSMAX uses ?

[@sebbelecocq1458]

When I try this, the pole gets damaged. Which diameter do you use?

[@MrMYH1990]

let me check on that, i will come back to you.

[@gordonwerner]

@@MrMYH1990 yes, what diameter drill bit did you use to do this.

[@brkylmz]

@@MrMYH1990 what is the answer :)) ??

[@ethanlocking9785]

Lol fr. A year later and no measurement

[@bl6045]

Top hole can take 3mm diameter but recommend 2mm diameter, bottom part needs to be 1.5 to 2mm or else it can break through the lamppost due to the indents

[@RobloxMan5678]

Ah yes “easy”😂

[@Ricardo-jk8nu]

Het is jammer dat je in het Lego boord

[@ueowwp]

Je doet net of Lego heilig verklaard wat een onzin man.
