Compact camera hack: bright lights for super-macro

Compact camera hack: bright lights for super-macro
Loudon, Merrimack County, New Hampshire, USA
January 20, 2012
Size: N/A
Top view of switch button from headlamp. The circuit board allowed the head lamp to operate in three modes: bright, dim, and tactical strobe. Since I had no use for dim or strobe I un-soldered the switch from the circuit board and connected my wires directly to it before mounting it atop my camera.
