Ok guys can you guess which picture is an aether and which it the Aether II.  

The camera was put on full Manual and set to get the Aether output to be kinda of dim. This lets you see the difference between them. It is much more than I expected.

There were no lens used on either they are in full flood mode.

Can you please send me an Aether II so I can see it in person.  ;D JK


Awesome, I though I had already taken care of LED floods for this Christmas, now I need more better ones...

Good news!  The new cheaper cost will allow me to build more Aethers that I couldn't afford during the last coop.


Bad news!  I haven't build the 5 kits I bought last coop and now I hear they won't match.  <fp.

Thanks for working so hard RJ.

Wow, nice work RJ! If you ever leave we will need a clinic to serve methadone on-line. Another homerun for team Jordan.

Quick update on the Aether II.

  I had one of the heatsink plates completed last weekend by the machine shop and It a nice drop in fit. I have the LED unit attached with 4-40 screws with a little heatsink compound between the led and the heatsink plate.

I have some proto pcb's ordered and have to wait on them to put it together complete but I have been running it off of the breadboard and temps look very good. Light output is as I showed great!

Building it will only require your soldering Iron, solder, hand drill, two common drill bits and a Phillips screw driver. It should only take about 45-60 minutes to have one built. Much less if you do a couple at a time.

The cooped kit will include all hardware, parts and pcb. Even two pigtails used on the SSC's to use to feed out for a Cat5 connection. All you will need to supply is a housing (same as Aether).

No running to the hardware store to hunt for stuff!

I wonder if a Lowes housing would work as they are bright red instead of yellow. More Christmassy.
