Unusual fibre optic illuminator with rotating LEDs

I got this a long time ago from a shop called T J Hughes on Argyle Street in Glasgow.They had a large display of fibre optic Xmas trees that had a very distinctive appearance compared to the simpler ones with fixed colour changing LEDs. I "explored" one in the shop and when I saw the rotating LED module I immediately bought one.I'm not sure if there was an issue with reliability, as I've never seen them since.This video shows the layout of the PCB and slip-ring assembly, which has proper carbon brushes, but sadly not copper or brass slip rings. I also removed all the existing LEDs from the PCB to reveal what they originally intended for the full colour set, and then modified it with my own choice of colours.No link for this item, as I don't even know if it's still available. But our fave big Chinese warehouse does have a wide range of industrial grade slip rings and brushes for your own projects.Here's a random (affiliate) link to a range designed for high current things like candy floss / cotton candy machines:-https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_c3AlaaVnYou can use that to launch a wild industrial component adventure on AliX.If you enjoy my videos, supporting the channel on Patreon helps keep it independent of YouTube's quirks, avoids intrusive mid-video adverts, gives early access, bonus footage and regular quiet Patreon live streams.https://www.patreon.com/bigcliveAlternatively, for a single coffee contribution you can use PayPal:-https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/bigclive#ElectronicsCreators...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QR05T512ccw
