Flickering brazier

#1

Post by footplate »

Hi I’m no good with electrical work, but I want to add an illuminated flickering brazier to my diorama.
Would I be able to connect this up to a AA battery pack.

Any battery that supplies the correct voltage. It’s just a tiny torch really isn’t it.

I think it depends on what voltage any Flicker effect uses? You would need to match this.

I have a brazier in front of the loco shed, its wired into my lighting circuit, it is a red flicker LED with a home made brazier.

Slight variation: I have a pile of ‘hot’ ash in an inspection pit with two flickering LEDs - one red, one orange.

Think I got this one from Layouts4U. It's 12 volts. (Figures not included).

Hello Footplate. Weirdly enough I was going to post the same question yesterday as I want a brazier for my micro-layout. Please let me know what you buy and how you get on.
