Do It Yourself 100 watt LED Project Design

Dry camping. You need A LOT OF LIGHT temporarily outside. The best way on 12 volts is to make your own system. It's not hard if you can work with basic electrical components.

Converter to allow you to use 100 watt LED chip

100 watt LED chip link. It needs a finned aluminum heat sink radiator. The chip operates on 33 volts. It needs the booster module above

Finned aluminum heat sink

Here is a remote mount power unit in case you want to use the 100 watt light on AC power. If you have a PSW inverter this is the way to go instead of using the battery only DC converter listed above

Converts AC shore or Inverter power to correct power for 100 watt LED lamp

A combination of heat sink, fan, led chip and focus lens. Still needs a 12 volt or a 120 volt AC converter separate purchase

This allows modular construction. The so-called 100 watt LED floodlights that weigh a ton are very weak in comparison to this setup

The obligatory caveat

-Some Assembly Required-

And you the user must dial down that DC to DC boost converter to 33 volts. Before connecting to LED lamp
