A future project of mine will be a large memory board filled with LEDs. It'll be ram for a microcontroller or something and you'll be able to see all the bits changing. Should be both cool and a PITA to get working.

I would have to say parallel 'em up with some sharing resistors and make a ridiculous variable linear supply. With all 60, you could make a 24kw variable supply :P. Up to 80v or whatever output and very many amps tongue. I would love to have a regulated supply like that.

Ahh but I'll need a source of juice... could be a cool project if I ever come across a big mofo transformer.

heh.
If anyone is interested I have a fairly nice 10A variable supply, dual channel.
Unfortunately the person who had it before me tried to run a 110V PS on 240V and it didn't like it.
I think he used a stepdown but the wiring is a bit strange and stupidly i didn't take pictures so can't get it working again.

(Grenadier, what about rewinding a MOT with bad secondary, using some of that OFC flat speaker cable I have sitting around here?)

Did anyone mention you could make an audio amp that delivers about 5,000 watts into 0.8 ohms? smile

Do you think that could serve as a 16K memory for my
Sinclair Z81 computer which has only 1 K of memory. (Just
enough for it to remember how to be a doorstop because
of its wedge shape)

Damn. I guess I'll add a giant amp to my project list then.
