Technical Info:
The MEL (Micro Effects Light) is a series of simple low cost LED light sources with a built in DC barrel type connector.
The 2.1 x 5.5mm barrel connector is very common for many low voltage DC power applications simplifying the building of a micro effects lighting system in a modular fashion. The MEL operates from 9 – 12 volts DC which allows a simple effects system operating from a 9 volt battery possible.
More complex systems with numerous micro effects lights are possible from a 12 volt DC power source. Lighting systems can range from a single MEL to over 100 MELs depending on the complexity of a lighting project.
The MEL is optimized for high light output at 9 volts DC with a nominal power of 0.18 watts operating at 20ma ref. With an input of 12 volts, a power consumption of 0.34 watts is typical, operating at 28ma ref. With input higher than 12 volts there is a diminishing light output due to thermal loading of the LED. The MEL is dimmable by either PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) type dimmers or with variable voltage input from 7 – 12 volts DC. The MEL can be made with pure fully saturated LED colors and with phosphor converted colors for a wide color gamut. The LED lens is water clear with a 30 degree output angle for a narrow beam.
The MEL may be operated from a 9 volt battery for portable applications. When using a 9 volt battery it is recommended that the number of MELs does not exceed six in order to limit the load current to about 120ma for battery life.
The MEL is equipped with a barrel connector type DC power jack to mate with a plug of the same type. The MEL uses a positive center power connection. The MEL is compatible with other LED Lighting accessories of the same connector type which include two and three way DC barrel connector splitter cable harnesses, pigtail harnesses, MED1 Micro Effects Dimmers, 9 volt DC barrel battery clips, and DC barrel-to-wire terminal block adapters.
The axial body of the MEL LED is of a small size and molded in black ABS resin. The MEL body overall length is 1.42” (36mm) and the diameter is 0.48” (12.2mm) nominal.
P/N: MED1
The MED1 Micro Effects Dimmer provides dimming, multimode effects, and on / off control of 5 – 24 volt DC LED lights.
The unit features a simple tactile three button interface; mode, speed, and light.
The variety of effects combined with the simplicity of use makes this a great control for low complexity projects.
The MED1 has eight dynamic effect modes and ten speed levels.
The light button is used to switch the unit to standard static dimming. In the static dimming mode the speed button provides ten brightness steps.
The speed button is also used to turn the unit off when it is held more than 1 second.
Any button can be used to turn the unit back on.
Mode effects patterns:
1) Up / Down varying brightness – always on
2) Strobe – fast
3) Blinking – long on
4) Blinking – long off
5) Flash - burst of pulses (emergency vehicle light)
6) Strobe – slow (beacon light)
7) Up / Down – flame flicker – always on
8) Up / Down – ramp up on ramp down off - repeat
The MED1 operates with 5, 9, 12 or 24 volt DC lighting systems and can switch a maximum of 4 amps. The unit provides up to 20 watts of lighting control when using a 5 volt system, 48 watts on 12 volt or up to 96 watts of lighting on a 24 volt system.
The control may be operated from a 9 volt battery for portable applications, it is recommended to limit the LED light load current to 100ma for battery life.
The MED1 is equipped with a barrel connector type DC power jack and plug. The connectors are of the 5.5mm x 2.1mm size with a positive center connection. The body of the MED1 control is of a small size with a low profile. The MED1 body measures a nominal 1.4” length, 0.6” wide and 0.2” thickness.
Each of the connector cables extends from the body 5.5”.
The overall end to end length of the entire body and cable assembly is 13.0” Max.
The unit’s body is sleeved in black and the cables are molded in black PVC.
