RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: Two Lamps?

For your info LEDs' do work fine on DC, with the correct resistor - Although
for your
application probably not a good idea as the led's would take a LONG time
To drain the the caps.

Ref the bulbs, you either have one of the bulbs shorted out or the 2 bulbs
are not
of equal voltage rating ?

Good luck

Finally got the bulbs this week and tryed them out.
It worked sort of, the Light drained the power after about one minute or so
just what I wanted.
Strange thing is only one of the bulbs lighted up the other one did not seam
to be on.
Because they where wired in series I know electricity must have gone through
both of them.
What is going on, anybody know why only one light was on?
How do I fix it.
