Electronics:
LightWorks was designed to the highest standards from the ground up using the latest in electronic components. The result is a very powerful, reliable and rugged unit.
Specifications
- Constant current of 20 milliamperes per LED (Constant current ensures each LED has the same output.)
- 60 High Intensity Red LEDs at 660nm wavelength (+/- 10nm), Approximately 197mW Total Output
- 55 High Intensity Near Infra-Red LEDs at 880nm wavelength (+/- 10nm), Approximately 228mW Total Output
- Frequency tolerance: +/- 1Hz
- Power Input: 12 Volts DC @ 1.0 Amps
Each LightWorks comes complete with:
- The LightWorks unit
- Operating Instructions
- One (1) International AC-DC Wall Adaptor
- One (1) Soft Carrying Case
- 3 Year Parts and Labor Warrant
International Voltage (220/240 Volt AC 50 Hz Mains) Requirements:
- LightWorks ships with an International Wall Adaptor intended for any voltage from 110VAC 60 Hz (North America) to 220/240 Volt AC 50 Hz Mains (as found in International Countries). Thus, you can use your new LightWorks virtually anywhere in the world (with the correct blade adapter).
- Additionally, the LightWorks may also be operated directly from a 12 Volt DC Battery, such as an automobile cigarette lighter. You will need to purchase an Adapter cord which plugs into the cigarette lighter that has a Center Positive, 2.1mm Plug. Radio Shack® usually has these Adapters.
Options for Powering the LightWorks:
In the event of a power outage here are some options for powering LightWorks:
1.
LightWorks may be operated directly from a 12 Volt DC Battery such an automobile cigarette lighter. You will need to purchase an Adapter cord which plugs into the cigarette lighter that has a Center Positive, 2.1mm Plug, like from Radio Shack®.
2.
LightWorks can be powered by a suitable solar panel. Keep in mind that most solar panel generators are used to re-charge a battery which in turn operates the unit. Therefore we suggest you use a solar panel (preferably a sealed Gel-Cel® type) to re-charge a 12 Volt DC automobile battery, then run
LightWorks directly from the battery. You will need to use a cord which has alligator clips on one end to attach to the battery terminals, and the appropriate Center Positive, 2.1mm Plug on the other end to plug into
LightWorks. Be careful with polarity! This type of cord with alligator clips on one end is probably not readily available, therefore you will to need to buy a cord and cut off the end that normally goes into the cigarette lighter, and solder your own set of alligator clips. Use a black and red alligator clips so you ensure polarity is correct each time you connect the circuit.
3. If you wish to operate
LightWorks directly from a solar panel you will need to use a 12 Volt DC output panel that is capable of supplying at least 2.5 Amps.
LightWorks' initial starting demands may require a higher output solar panel. That is why it is preferable to use a charged 12 Volt DC battery instead.
