Step 12Building the lamp
(the sub needs a source of light down in the depths)
---Many readers have asked me if I have any plans for adding anything more to my ROV. Yes, i have. Unfortunately i havent had all that much time to work on it, but here is what i have been able to make in the last couple of weeks. The waterproof ROV lamp.
***Parts you'll need for the lamp***
-PVC parts(i used some common fittings from a kitchen sink piping system as thats what i had available at the time and they suited the purpose of having a screwable cap with a hole for a 'window')
-Plexiglass(for the 'windows')
-sillicone sealant(to fill in those holes :P)
-rubber washers
-some wire
-tape
-a Dot-it 3LED lantern(i used one of these as it already had the circuitry readymade and it would be quicker)
-AAA batteries for the lantern
-one small switch
(sorry all the materials are not in the picture, but in later pictures you can see them)
***Tools***
-pliers
-cutting knife
-solder set
-scissors
-screwdriver(phillips)
