MINIATURE WIRING: How to light your Diorama, everything you need to start!

[@dannywiley4072]

In parallel the voltage stays the same but amp hour increases. So add more battery’s in parallel it adds the amount of time it will last. Capacity isn’t exactly how I’d describe a battery. The voltage and amp hour of a battery is what the battery is made up of ( material) and the surface area of the battery. Capacity to me would be a capacitor. A capacitor and a battery are 2 different things. Another thing, when stripping wires you don’t go 2 gauges on the strippers. You went to small and damaged the wire. On that note!!! This is a great video! Just has some wrong information. Keep to the basics yes but the proper basics. I know it is just some little leds for some miniatures But, why not at least do it correctly.

[@OilersWorkshop]

Thanks for the pointers

[@dannywiley4072]

@stizelswik3694 you’re welcome. In reading what I wrote I said about a battery and a capacitor aren’t the same thing. They both store voltage but how they use it different. A capacitor releases the voltage right away. It is like a jump start, a jolt of voltage right away. A battery does it slowly in order to get power to run something for a period of time. Simplest way I can put it.

[@JERRYR708]

Professor, I learned more about wiring in this 30 minute video than my whole life. I'm ready to finally add lights to my shelf layout. Thanks.

Planning to add lights for the first time in my next but one diorama and I knew nothing about model lighting so this has proved immensely valuable thank you.

[@OilersWorkshop]

Hey you’re welcome! Should be a good starting point

[@DarKKlusteR]

Even though this video is a year old at the time of making this comment. It's helped me actually figure out what type of battery I need to light up my LEDs! I recently got 3 different LED packs(Red, Blue, and White) for a Starship Model Kit 1:1000 scale. At first I thought a 9V would be enough and ended up blowing 3 of my LEDs. Assumed I had to do some complicated thing with capacitor's or something. Now with the information of knowing all I need is a 3V battery. I was able to turn on my LEDs! Thank you so much for this little bit of information. I now plan to continue my model kit and hopefully get it to a good lighting that I like!

[@OilersWorkshop]

Awesome!

Man, you distilled this in such a clear and accessible way. Very charming and fun video to watch too. Never felt like you were wasting my time. I feel enlightened and I really want to start messing with arduino/electronics 🥴

[@elysianfields84]

Wondering if you could help me with something @Oilers. I'm wanting to hook up a 12v govee programmable strip similar to the last example you showed. I'd like a setup where I could change the colors/patterns from a control mounted onto the diorama, and hook up to both a battery setup and dedicated wall outlet. Like I could use battery if I take it to a show or something, but just leave it plugged in when I'm at home etc. This is one of those things where I 'don't know what I don't know', but I feel astronomically more informed after watching your video. Thanks again !

[@OilersWorkshop]

Awesome

[@OilersWorkshop]

As long at the output voltage/amps on your power adapter/converter you’re plugging into the wall does not exceed the battery add up or voltage rate of your LEDs your good, like if you use all 12v LEDs just make sure you don’t hook up more than 8AA batteries and you use a wall plug(adapter/converter) that sends output max of 12volts, you should be ok as long as the amps are low(typically they will be especially if you order all the pieces from the same place)

Hi, I just want to say thank you very much for this great video tutorial. I've just started making Book Nooks and Dioramas, but I don't know anything about lighting them up. 😅 I bought a couple of miniature lamps from Temu, and they arrived with 2 wires coming out of them, one red and one black, but I had no idea what they did, or what I was supposed to do with them. 😅 I ended up contacting Evan Designs LEDS because I'd seen a couple of their videos which were really helpful and easy to understand, and I bought 2 of their tiny LEDS and a battery pack with a switch to go with them. I plan on using the LEDS to light up the Book Nook I'm making at the moment, but the box I bought to use as my Book Nook didn't come with any where to put lighting inside it. It's basically just a tall box that I have to glue together, but I don't know where to put the battery pack or how to get the LEDS inside it. I would really appreciate any advice you could give me. Cheers, from Amanda Jones in Melbourne, Australia

Thanks a lot Jordan! I gotta say I owe it to you to be able to start wiring (and lighting) my diorama finally. Before that I was at a loss on how to make use of the led circuits I have started hoarding 😅. Now my question is, is it possible for me to wire (from scratch) old LED strips with varying voltages (for the sake of example, say 5 volts), make it a USB type connection that then connects to the wall outlet of 250V? I have been doing research but am afraid it gets more complicated upon each video I watch. I love that you keep things simple enough for electronics noob like myself. Thanks man and I look forward to your advice.

[@OilersWorkshop]

That’s a LOT of steps, I don’t feel qualified to answer that in the comments for you, I would encourage you to keep researching and then in a future I can make a follow up video, but probably won’t be for quite some time though

[@valentinat6214]

Pardon my ignorance, but I have two questions: how do you know which color is positive regarding wire? Is it always the red? And second question, how do you set up lights so that they flicker, like for a miniature computer hard drive light? And I second the comment someone else said, I’ve learned more from you than from anyone else regarding electricity. You clearly have a gift for both light and teaching!

[@OilersWorkshop]

Regarding wire color It technically doesn’t matter all the wire is fundamentally made the same, it’s just best practice to use 2 colors of wire for the side you use for negative and the side you use for positive simply for your own safety, eyes, and organization. You could use purple wire for positive and yellow for negative if you wanted. But standards are usually black is negative and white or red is positive, for flickering you need a little pre setup board in the circuit. Go to evan designs website, they sell pre wired flickering LEDs

[@thetoysurgeon]

Best video to date. I am getting ready to light a 1/144 aircraft carrier. I like the 3v system. How many lights can you put on a 3v battery that is in parallel like you made in the video.

[@OilersWorkshop]

I don’t know the exact number but basically the more lights you have the faster the battery will drain so the higher capacity 3volt battery you go with the better. I don’t claim to be an electronics engineer, I’m just a miniaturist fan ho sorted some helpful information out

[@orianm3043]

Ok I can help but you need more information like the type of led the voltage their rated for also the current they draw it will all depend on that

[@t.c.251]

This has been the only video that has actually helped me. Thank you so much. I do have a question though. If I did want to use a larger battery and resistors would that make them last longer. Also, is there a way to wire a lighting system up that plugs into the wall while still using the 3v LEDs?

[@OilersWorkshop]

Larger capacity batteries at the same voltage will make it last longer, like instead of using a AAA battery use a D size battery, it’s bigger but they BOTH put out 1.5 volts. Yes you can get wall worts(power adapters) that are rated to decrease voltage coming out of a wall down to YOUR voltage. You want a power adapter that has an OUTPUT voltage that matches your Setup.
