How To Make LED Light Buckets For Your RC Car

[@monkeyman503]

...and this is how I will make my lights for my Blazer. Sweet ride!

[@tlmrproductions2812]

u are just the right person to ask about RC cars

[@renatofelipe4071]

Thanks Brother. ..... You're "the Man". I was without ideas for my new body. I will try to make. Thanks again !!!

[@chieffirewolfBorgman]

Thankyou for making this video. Ive been waiting on another youtuber to make a video about this same thing. Good job. Keep RCING my friend

[@RCKiddo71]

thanks!

[@Riz23Riz]

That came out really well Kiddo. Excellent idea and damn near flawless execution.

[@RCKiddo71]

thanks man! :-)

[@MrKingNica]

One quick question does it really knocked down a lot of your battery life. For example let’s say you had 15 minutes run time on said battery how much less minutes do you think it would take away when using all your lights? I’m Really curious to know, thanks in advance.

[@kennyono4389]

The soda can is such a great idea cheers to the man who thought of it and thanks for sharing!

[@MatrixRC]

Nice job now let me go down some beer and get started. I would hot glue some areas to keep moisture from getting in though. You have inspired me.

[@Codesempire]

Very cool John. Awesome How To! I really like how those turned out and they look cool at night. Thumbs up bro!

[@RCKiddo71]

Thanks bud! I actually thought of you when I did this because they are really for off road and are SOOOOO bright that I was thinking they would be good on a scale or crawler!!!! for night crawling!! might be my next project.....

[@Codesempire]

***** Thanks a ton John. A crawler/scaler is tons of fun for sure. ;-)

[@BlackSmithRC]

Great idea and awesome night run! (MIDWID material)!

Thanks so much Joe.. I was really happy with how they came out. Just wish the camera showed the lights better!

[@MrKingNica]

Great work dude. This video is truly appreciated. I think they look super dope.

[@austingupton8829]

Very good, great video production as well. Have you tried making small buckets with Al?

[@robertopizano6436]

I like pretty much the way that your mount your led for you car, tank you for your input the lights look OK to me, this trick will serve me for many hobby projects. Roberto Pizano

[@rocbud43]

Very creative john nice job, lights look awesome bro.

[@marl-author2531]

Genius idea, I was using aluminum foil but a soda can is far more efficient thanks for this!

[@JoeSchmoeRC]

What a cool idea. :)

[@RCKiddo71]

:-) COOOOOOLLLLL Stuff! :-)

[@mhrc3976]

Lookin Gorgeous! Great job man!

[@RCKiddo71]

Mattias Holmström Thanks!

[@northmemphis48]

+RCKiddo71 YOU DID A AWESOME JOB

[@Aro800]

Great tutorial. Great tip aluminium can!

[@ggjflyguy]

Sweet, this lights work well. Have question though, how much power do they handle? the voltage rating. thanks

[@RCKiddo71]

I think the "working" volts is 5.5V.... accotding to the package, but I called the tech dep at tower and thwey said it would be ok to run at 6 or 6.5 but that it was on the edge of their capability. This is a parkinglot car so I am only running the BEC in the MM2 at a default output value of 5.5V

[@ggjflyguy]

***** thanks thats a big help for anyone wanting to get some of these,

[@RCKiddo71]

gg i need to see if you can do a decal of my logo guy

[@mtctookie25]

I cya John, i totally luv the idea of having lights for night driving. Got one question for you, where did you get the lights? One Luv!

[@RCKiddo71]

ready for this tookie??? WallMart my man! LOL

[@RCKiddo71]

That R8 has light buckets for it and you can get the lights for that car almost anywhere.

[@mtctookie25]

***** I already seen the other vid you did saying where you got them bro. I'm going to go check Walmart now, gotta have some for the R8.
