Knocked up a prototype electric control panel . Simular design to my one I made for the D3 ..but it works well in there ..so why change . Plus i had most of the bits . Very Happy





12 way fuse box
230v meter AC
12v meter DC
amp meter DC
thermometer

14 switches ( 13 spoken for )

Not sure if i want lights on the switches ..although they are LED and dont use much power.





This little Censored is 5v ...so any suggestions for dropping 12v to 5v much appriciated .

And these are different brightness's ... Shocked ... Censored



Other side of the energy center ...240v



couple of ciggy lighter sockets ...with USB for charging the iphone up



Both as they will look in the cubby



I could have hid the consumer unit and fuse box ..but i like the idea if it all being easy to get to .



and for geekeyness Confused ...if i can get down to our factory ..hopefully i can engrave some switch ledgends



Some work to do yet Sad



I have also got a master switch to turn everything off in one go .

May even have the switches on remote ...for those lazy evenings rounds Rays fire pit Thumbs Up

Not sure how much current you need at 5 volts but one of these might do you. It's good for 1 amp.
http://www.rapidonline.com/Electronic-Comp...e=googleps

3 connections.
12v in
5v out
common (earth)

remember to mount on metal with a mica washer Wink

If you order this you'll be fine. That meter back light draws 22 milliamps according to the RS site Wink

Heatsink
http://www.rapidonline.com/productinfo.asp...ef=36-0115

Insulation washer & plastic bolt bush
http://www.rapidonline.com/Electronic-Comp...Kits/30769

Regulator is the link above

Heatsink grease
http://www.rapidonline.com/Electronic-Comp...aste/29795

The holes all line up and you would need a M3 nut & bolt to hold it all together. You could use a well placed M3 nutsert (squash rivet thingy) if you preferred. At the current draw from that meter it's not exatly going to get hot.

Call me if you need it building up. I can do this and post it to you with leads soldered on ready to pop in.

Oh yes, Maplin have a habit of using different part numbers but the 7905 is a well known part. Just checked and they use the following.
Code: Number: Style: Voltage V: Regulation mV:
QL31J TS7805CZ TO220 5V 3

Ask for a mounting kit and heatsink with it and the bloke will know what to sell you.

Could you not use the output from one of the cheap USB sockets? As said, current draw isn't much and USB is 5v.


Other than that, it's looking pretty much as we've come to expect from you Thumbs Up

And if you can get those etched tags for the switches.... Bow down Bow down Bow down Ubergeeky! Thumbs Up

I think the reason one of your volatge meters is different, is the backlight has gone on one side.

Looks good though, nice panel.
