Hello from Ohio!

[dantheman]

Hi, I'm Dan.

I'm a huge Star Trek fan and I've been building starships off and on for about 2 years. I just bought a slew of new kits off eBay, and now I'm really looking to get good at this stuff.

I'm an electrical engineer by trade, so I've been working hard designing my own lighting kits. I've had lots of success with LED's and cold cathode lights. Recently, I started incorporating microcontrollers for lighting effects.

I'm not an expert, but I feel I have lots of experience and advice that I can offer the community lighting-kit-wise.

Anyway, I was really excited when I found this community. HELLO EVERYBODY!

Welcome friend! I have family in Troy, near Dayton. Nice place to visit. I've recently started doing lighting, would be interested to see what you can come up with, esp is you have schematics for stuff. Welcome again!

Welcome to the herd. I'm just getting started in lighting so i'll be picking your brain soon. As a former Buckeye (I lived in the Dayton area for 15 years) welcome.
