Proton Pack Lights
Here is a picture of the proton pack light board kit. This board
controls both the 12 power cell lamp sequencing as well as the 4
cyclotron LEDs. The cyclotron LEDs are connected to the board header
and some wire is run to the cyclotron area.There are 2 versions of
this kit. The first version uses incandescent bulbs. The second version
uses blue LEDs. The first kit is screen accurate whereas the LED version
offers longer life over the standard bulbs. Both kits offer the same
accurate sequencing rates.

The 2 switch wires coming off the board re connected up to the master
on/off power switch. The 5-pin header ont he board is for connecting
the cyclotron LEDs. The power cell lamps are already installed and
ready to go. The small onboard switch controls the
sequencing speed of the power cell lamps ONLY. There are 2
available speeds that have been calibrated to be as accurate as
possible! The reflector base allows you to connect a mirror or
other reflective material that will make the lamps appear brighter, like
they do with headlights. You can solder, screw, or glue a
reflector to the marked area. Make sure the reflector does not
touch the lamps!
Here is a picture of a finished proton pack with the light board
installed.
