al-yeti Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Beware! I'd only recommend with an old glue gun used only for that purpose! Otherwise I just look out for SWA kits on ebay that are near sell-by date. Got a load of 3M ones lately, £1 a pop! They were for some obscure fibre joint, just opened up all the boxes and binned the odd y-shaped plastics. Odd y shape plastics were for separating fibres to diff trays not that is of much use to know lol Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/37402-resin/page/2/#findComment-407736 Share on other sites More sharing options...

datadiffusion Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 I tried those said cheapo PCBs on the boat to run LED strings, all bust in the same manner you mentioned, they are just very badly designed / made I think.

GalaxyGuy Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 You're better with the LM2596 based DC-DC buck converter. Higher current capability and step down efficiency. Around £1 though.

GalaxyGuy Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NEW-DC-DC-Buck-Converter-Step-Down-Module-LM2596-Power-Supply-Output-1-23V-30V-S-/261536112883?pt=UK_BOI_Electrical_Test_Measurement_Equipment_ET&hash=item3ce4c460f3 I suppose if buying from UK, then you'll pay a premium. Output voltage is adjustable via pot. If you only need a couple, then PM me.
