Hey -
So Im not so much in the hobby anymore due to the upcoming nuptials, but as my fiance finds more and more ways to spend money.. I try and find cheaper ways to implement her plans.. My time in the hobby taught be that reefers are about as resourceful as anyone Ive come across..
So she wants those little ice cube floralight things (look like ice cubes but they light up).. I got to thinking they really are just LED's, cr 2032 batteries, and some form of waterproofing. We dont need to put them in drinks, and will mainly just be in vases and flowers, so appearance isnt that important.
So here are my questions:
1. How many LED's could be powered by a single CR2032 battery ( only need it to work for 24 hours or so) ?
2. If more than one could run off of a single battery, how might one go about extending the distance between the battery and the LED's?
3. (This is where the reef experience comes in..) What is the cheapest effective way to waterproof these? Heat shrink wrap tape, silicone spray, etc?
Thanks!
