Build your own 'light up' picture frame or mirror Can be used with a wide variety of LEDs A great way to practice your soldering skills Designed and manufactured in the UK by KitronikThis Kitronik LED Picture Frame Kit allows you to illuminate the edge of a picture frame using a number of LEDs. This happens for a period of time when the button is pressed. The duration is set using a trimmer potentiometer and can be anything from a few seconds to 30 minutes. You can choose which LEDs they would like to use. These are connected to the terminal block (along with a current limit resistor). LEDs and current limit resistor are not included. The board can drive 200mA, which is about 10 high brightness LEDs.This kit includes:1 x PP3 Clip lead1 x Battery holder (3x AA)1 x Terminal block (2 way)1 x Push to make switch1 x Capacitor, electrolytic, 16V, 220uF1 x 10M Pot2 x 10K resistor2 x N channel FET (2N7000)1 x 0.5 metre length of single core wire1 x Picture frame LED driver PCBPCB dimensions: 58mm x 28mm.This kit is supplied as a pack of parts and requires soldering. Supplied in a poly bag.Selecting LEDs for using with the circuit:The circuit can be used with a variety of LEDs. Below are a selection of LEDs that can be used. Also listed is the current limit resistor that will be required if four LEDS are used.Standard red = 33ohm resistorStandard green = 33ohm resistorStandard yellow = 33ohm resistorStandard white = 22ohm resistorStandard blue = 22ohm resistorUltra bright red = 33ohm resistorUltra bright white = 68ohm resistorUltra bright blue = 68ohm resistor
