American DJ Sparkle LED 3W. A look inside.
Contents of the video
Alright folks, if you're anything like me, you know, you get something and you want to pull it apart. When I was younger, I wanted to pull things apart and it did annoy me mum and dad, but I suppose that's life. Anyway, very quickly, I highly recommend you do not do this because A, you could do some serious damage to the piece of kit. More importantly, if you do this, you don't put it back together again, you could basically void your warranty. So, the likes of myself... And Brian and the other people doing tutorials and demos like this. We're the guys, not so much maybe know what we're doing, but if we mess it up, it's our own fault. So it's tough where we're concerned. Right. I've opened up this guy here. It's from a company called American DJ. It's the Sparkle LED 3W. The reason I've opened it up is to show you inside. Also, at the end of the day, if I show you inside, it means you don't have to open up your own, do you? OK. Right. I am no...
Technical genius or electronics wizardry expert, but we've got a fan. The fan is there to cool the unit. Now that piece there, you can see there's lots of fins on it. That's known as a heat sink. What that will do, that will dissipate the heat. That will get the heat away a lot quicker from the LED, which is, if I get a pen, hold on, which is there. Amazing, isn't it? But that is three watts. Now, this is what happens. The light will shine from this LED and will hit all of these mirrors. Then the mirrors in turn will shine, take the light from the LED, so it goes from the LED, hits the mirrors, and then it goes forward through the lens, and then it will go wherever, on the dance floor, on the walls, etc. So, that's near enough there.
Also what we've got here, we've got that unit, that's the transformer. That will turn the input power and reduce it down to a power that's necessary to work this guy here. Electronics, wizardry stuffy kind of things. And yeah, alright, see, I'm no technical genius. And then just behind there we've got a motor. Now the motor will turn this very slowly. I'm not going to turn it on now by a long shot, no way. But there you go. A quick look inside this guy here from a company called American DJ and it's known as the Sparkle LED 3 Watt. Practice and enjoy.
