LED's, Resistors and a Battery?

Just put 100 ohm in series to be safe

1. DIY LED lamp is less powerful than expected

From your mention of a test with a 14 volt supply, it appears that most voltage is being lost in the wires between the supply and light panel - if so, you need significantly larger wire for that connection.All wires have some resistance, and you must consider this resistance when determining the required wire size for a given current and cable length

2. What is the best way to make a LED strip flash?

i recommend EL wire, i think those are programable not sure

3. What is the difference between Vajpayee led NDA and Modi led NDA?

The questionable integrity of the leader himself

4. What reasons led to the start of skinning animals?

To eat their meat without their skinWhat reasons led to the start of skinning animals?

5. Which would give a better glow, neon tubes or LED strips?

LED's by a mile. Especially on a car. You can run them off the battery without any high voltage inverters. They still require a power supply, but at a safer voltage, at around 2v, as opposed to 2,000v required to run a neon tube. LEDs are obviously less inclined to break than a glass tube, and are generally brighter without using tons of energy, therefore, not draining your battery. The only downside to LEDs is that they are directional lamps, so they only light up where you point them, as neon tubes evenly disperse their light. You would need some sort of diffuser for the LED strips if they do not come with one

6. What's the best motorcycle LED kit for 40 dollars?

i think the 40 set is the best ones and there only 38$ not 40 like the other ones

7. best carpet preconditioner 4 maximum soil suspension,ground in dirt caused by detergent residue build up-in uk?

Pour some detergent on you and see. It's just water softener that's all it is. Did you think that if you poured it on a mountain that it would level it? Besides, the word isn't create - the word would be made from dirt and more exactly clay. Like the story of the potter in Isaiah, the clay tells God that He doesn't exist - it's real funny.

8. Computer Problems, HDD activity led? Not sure.?

Talk to it and see how its feels. Then you will find the true answer

9. What factors led to the decline of the Ottoman Empire?

Some scholars argue the power of the Caliphate began waning by 1683, and without the acquisition of significant new wealth the Ottoman Empire went into a fast decline. Ottomanist scholars, however, have based research on Ottoman archives that show the decline narrative to be tenuous - their historiography describes an economically vibrant and growing empire with a sophisticated political leadership brought to a premature end after the First World War. Berkes was one of the first writers in the 1960s to summarise the works on Ottoman socio-economic history. He suggested one of the reasons for Ottoman economic decline was the inability of the ruling class to make a clear choice between war and the more conventional types of capital formation. Berkes' work however focused on the confrontation of the Ottomans and the Europeans, and though important, had little detail on the commercial activities of the state. Itzkowitz and nalcik state Ottoman writers attributed the Empire's troubles to the dissolution of the circle of equity, erosion of the sultan's authority, disruption of the timar system and the demise of the devshirme, "describing symptoms rather than causes". They argue causes comprised geographical and logistical limitations, population growth after the 16th century, inflation due to influx of Peruvian silver and the end of profitable conquests. Itzkowitz states, "the state could find no remedy" to these problems, and nalcik, "As a result of these upheavals, the Ottoman Empire of the seventeenth century was no longer the vital empire it had been in the sixteenth" - however neither show the issues remained a long-term problem. Several factors contributed to the Empire's decline: The European powers wanted to expand Corrupt religious opposition to critical thinking; the corrupt ulema wanted to "protect" their position as heads of state. They discouraged creativity to keep the populace from information that might be disseminated through books other than the Koran. Muslims had been aware of the printing press since the 15th century, but it was not until 1727 -- 272 years after Gutenberg-that the eyhlislam released a fetva decreeing its compatibility with Islam. Economic problems: Competition from trade from the Americas Competition from cheap products from India and the Far East Development of other trade routes Rising unemployment within the Empire Government problems: Ottoman Empire became less centralised, and central control weakened Sultans being less severe in maintaining rigorous standards of integrity in the administration of the Empire Political problems: Sultans becoming less sensitive to public opinion The low quality Sultans of the 17th and 18th centuries The ending of the execution of Sultans' sons and brothers, imprisoning them instead This apparently humane process led to men becoming Sultan after spending years in prison - not the best training for absolute power
