Does your Van have 12V LED lighting

Then this little device will add even more sophisitcation and ambience to your lighting....

I actually discovered them when I was looking for remote control PWM speed controllers, take the Reciever out of the case and its just a very small PCB and they work well for controlling the speed of my trams BUT see there was this Chinaman had a job lot of 50 which I bid $50 for and won so I then decided to install them in my van to control the led lighting. In my case fitting them behind the wall and inside the roof space was easy, just unscrew the fitting and slide the gizmo in after cutting the power wires and clipping them into the terminals, some times I had to dig out a bit of the insulating foam.....

They will control 8 amps each so probably would work on Halogens as well....
They are individually coded so one remote only works its paired reciever...

If you wanted this level of equipment supplied at manufacture it would cost you big time...

Really good bit of kit for that price, Trev, thanks for the link.
Would be handy for fan control too

any squeeling / HF noise or is that motor specific? Did you notice any interference from driving the LEDs? (through a telly or radio)
