Silhouette Lights

Published by Ron at 11:34 am under Electronics

Here are some photos of our newest product, the LED Silhouette light:

The art piece starts with a hand painted reverse silhouette, resulting in translucent white patterns on a glossy black background. The silhouette is then installed in a Ribba shadowbox frame and protected by a glass front.

Inside sits a custom LED lighting assembly, designed and built by Evelyn. The twelve hand-soldered LEDs are driven by a microcontroller, resulting in a series of unique lighting effects. When turned on, the unit can display a variety of different color effects, from random colors, to warm glows and solid colors.

On the back a single button controls the LED lighting. Simply press the button to cycle through the effects. It’s designed to fit your mood or your favorite colors and is very easy to use.

The art piece is ideal for placement on mantels, end tables, bookshelves, or any flat surface near a wall outlet. As the power plug is found in the back, this piece cannot be hung on a wall.

The frame is 10” x 10” square and 1 ¾” deep. The unit requires 2” of clearance toward the back to accommodate the power plug.
