I took some individual LEDs and soldered a resistor to them and then sealed and put heat-shrink on the leads. Sidebar on LED resistors - skip to way down the page if you already know all this. I wrote this for a paper some time back. ================================= Unlike incandescent...

I replaced the factory courtesy light bulbs with LED's for both power consumption savings and robustness. I replaced the festoon bulbs in the cockpit lights with an LED version. The package and part number of what I used is shown here: The swap was very easy. Unscrew the cover, remove...

Yep. Them's the numbers - more like 35%. I don't believe *MY* (loaded) boat was fully onto it's most efficient level of plane at 4000rpm with speed somewhere around 11-12kn there. Going faster (the slope of the speed graph gets steeper) allows for more rapid increase in mph for a...
