Rangefinder circuits, official sign up thread

Here is a teaser pic. Starting to crank these out now. Should have everyone done this weekend who has paid so far:cheers Oh and thats a piece of cardboard in the self contained units. Its just a insulator to keep the battery off while in transit. You need to remove it prior to installation, hold the batteries in place while you pull it out, or the top battery pops out with it:lol:

The LEDs look like they are clear. Are you using clear leds that light up red? I kind of liked the solid red leds, but either one is okay.

They are actually a pinkish color, but light up red. They are the new superbright LED's I am using, and are a bit brighter than the old. I do have a couple boards left with the older style red LED's left. I can fill you order with one of them if you prefer.
 
Looking great, your RF curcuit !
Will it fit the RF-Top from Terminal Fettler ?
Thanks for quick response, I´ll really intersted in.

I am not sure, I have never seen a TF topper. I have the board dimensions above. You should measure the inside of your topper to see if it would fit
 
You have cash, if you could do me a favor and add me to run 4 for my spouse's custom blue I would appreciate it, I look forward to the the board....now to find a hollow rf ^_~

Put me down for an all blue self contained unit that I will try out on my Jango. I'll be making and casting up some hollow RF's to match my BKBT helmet unless I see some already existing RF's that will work with it.

Edit: If the blue ones are a pain to do, I'll stick with what you got going here with the Boba style and adjust what I have to, just so I don't end up any further down the list. :lol:

I wanted to use one of these in a Bobamaker Deluxe Rangerfinder. The topper has holes for the red LED's, but does not have a window for the clear LED. Anyone know if I can just clip the clear LED without messing up the circuit?

You may want to check to make sure it will fit the BM deluxe. If so, I can always provide your board without the 3rd LED. Or just cutting it off would be fine as well, won't hurt anything.:D
 
Got the parts in today(y) Should have all the parts now to cover the rest of everyone signed up. Will be plugging away at run #2 this weekend.
 
id like to reserve a spot... pmt pending answer to my PM...
but I'll ask here...
are all your LEDs the high intensity ones? or just the red?
and do you have other colors available?

thanks!

on mine (when you get down to run #70, or wherever i am), i'll be doing rotj, so i don't even have the little screen there to illuminate. might as well leave that led off entirely.
