Premium Members Mikko Wilson Posted December 15, 2004 Premium Members Report Share Posted December 15, 2004 Neat, someone who knows how to connect battery to bulb. :o However, really. This is a usefull quick fix and I'm sure works well, however if you shine a little too much light on your photocell you will blow the LED. (is it recording now?) The use of photocells to relay tally is not at all a new idea, for example many Teleprompters use a similar circuit to turn on the prompter's own tally lamp from the camera without hardwiring. To do this properly you need a little bit of a circuit to drive the LED from the Photocall correctly. - I suspect that Peter's tally lights use this circuit. Depending on the circuit used you can even have it adjustable for sensetivity too (Peter, are yours adjustable? - Future option maybe?) On a side note, Peters lights are of very high quality and I'm sure that you can't beat them for durabilty either. :-) - Mikko Wilson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter has seen more of these broken, means if i buy one off him and it will be strong! Howard, on your new hummingbird / mk-v / knightrider-superslick monitor, there are a load of tally lights accross the top. How does one feed a signal into this creature? if you dont have the new jbox with lights ablaze. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Members Peter Abraham Posted December 21, 2004 Premium Members Report Share Posted December 21, 2004 Mr. Peter Abraham here. I never said I invented this idea. In fact, on many occasions I've mentioned where I was told about this. Additionally, many years ago, Jerry Holway wrote out a detailed description of a Tally Light in a matchbox. Better, neater, smaller than the one in the link provided. I still have about 40 of my Zalex Tally Lights left for sale, and am very pleased that you felt so moved as to mention me and my fine product in this posting. Thank you so much !!!!!! Best wishes, and any emails concerning my Zalex Tally Light may be sent to : visualist@frontiernet.net Happy New Year Peter New York Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
