Knight Rider Style Scanner Lights

New for September 2004. This light is designed to be a partially assembled kit for K.I.T.T or K.A.R.R. Measuring only 22mm x 30mm this tiny board should find a home in your model car. Due to advances in technology this design has shrunk to 34% of its original 34mmx56mm size. The board is fully tested and programmed. As many customers require the LED's to be assembled into the nose of the car and there are various sizes of cars we have the option of fitting the LED's ot leaving them off, they are supplied in the kit what ever you choose. We have also added a slide switch to the kit to turn the light on/off.

The scanner light is designed to work from 7V DC up to 20V DC. A PP3 battery connection is supplied and also a voltage regulator all assembled.

Supplied with 8 LED's either 3mm diameter Yellow/Amber or 3mm diameter Red LED's. Two patterns are programmed, the first is like the one seen on K.I.T.T, regular left to right to left loop movement with our 'SmoothSync' fading effect. The second is the light with two dots, seen on K.A.R.R. starting at each end and crossing in the middle and looping also with the 'SmoothSync' fading effect. To select the second pattern just add a wire link, its as easy as that.

Four kits available, one supplied with Red LED's the other with Yellow/Amber LED's named KS5008R and KS5008Y, supplies with the LEd's fitted or just supplied loose. The LED's used are Red 3mm YZ-RV3N30N and Yellow 3mm YZ-YU3N30N both manufactured by Yoldal, extremly bright and reliable, that is why we use them in our products.

Wiring Instructions.

LED's have to be connected the correct way around, one way wont work. The long leg is positive which is the common track going to every other LED hole.
There are 3 holes for wires in the PCB, one is for 0V connection, one is 7V or more and the other is 5V. In most cases you wont need the 5V one. The wiring is made to take a PP3 battery, if you don't desire that connector cut it off and run the wires to a battery pack of 5 cells or more.

To run on 9V just plug into a PP3 battery.

to run from 7volts up to 20volts you can chop off the PP3 battery connector and connect the wires to your power source. Red is positive, black is GND / 0V.
