Re: Project: Project: Satella DQ-v2 (extended mod version)

As I was surfing the internet for more info about satellite, I found out majority of them carries at least 2 to 3 antennas of different function ( a dish, a long straight RF and mixed).

I'll be doing the RF one first...

along with the sketchup, an excess household power line router, defective radio antenna and a broken bended metal rods from a child playchair.

http://inlinethumb17.webshots.com/18576/2211010280053927514S600x600Q85.jpg
preparing to cut the metal and a brief plan ahead of the router for the LED wirings to come.

http://inlinethumb59.webshots.com/43130/2072435020053927514S600x600Q85.jpg]
Removal of the back part of the router to make way for the red LED backlight mod facing the Airforce turbine fan.
The tool I used here is a small needle round file that works like a saw.

I think these is what I wanted.

http://inlinethumb31.webshots.com/46110/2260967990053927514S600x600Q85.jpg
trial fitting for the 3 parts, nice and cool.

http://inlinethumb14.webshots.com/44365/2506356640053927514S600x600Q85.jpg
oki doki!!! On with the next part by part mod.


Satella Front "huge cable tie head mod"

http://inlinethumb56.webshots.com/42679/2560314300053927514S600x600Q85.jpg
Got this huge cable tie here at our place while one cable TV company dismantle their defective cable wire with these huge cable tie holding it. The technician removing these cable tie just left it littered on our street. And I was rejoicing!!!

http://inlinethumb53.webshots.com/44212/2570611840053927514S600x600Q85.jpg
I have so many of these in my stockpile and didn't hesitate putting it with the mod, great looking...

http://inlinethumb30.webshots.com/43805/2759211150053927514S600x600Q85.jpg
With the black allen head screws, thing really went out excellently!!!

http://inlinethumb52.webshots.com/1587/2237741070053927514S600x600Q85.jpg
Added big holes to accomodate the antenna bend bars. Interchangable.

http://inlinethumb49.webshots.com/31856/2761863310053927514S600x600Q85.jpg
All holes completed, front modding will be in the end zone.

http://inlinethumb64.webshots.com/46335/2667339230053927514S600x600Q85.jpg
I was not satisfied with the result, I put more holes, hehehehe.

Satella Front Led Lighting number 1 (front lit fanmod)

Unpacked my arsenals of different LEDs to create another first of the first in LED modding... let's get started!!!

http://inlinethumb63.webshots.com/42366/2462313370053927514S600x600Q85.jpg
These LED will undergo severe test and I'll hand pick the best to be on my mod.

http://inlinethumb36.webshots.com/34275/2157949950053927514S600x600Q85.jpg
Some of the LED that passes are now going to the circuit. I then measure the length of my sunny's led array mod.

http://inlinethumb28.webshots.com/45211/2944341270053927514S600x600Q85.jpg
If till now you don't have an idea on how I make my sunny's led array, might as well check my "sunny's light my mod" topic.
I made the calculated distance hole to put 8 x 3mm ultrahighmegadensitypowerful led (don't exaggerate, it's how you use it).

http://inlinethumb05.webshots.com/45060/2262517530053927514S600x600Q85.jpg
almost completed the installation. let's try.

http://inlinethumb23.webshots.com/44566/2284258710053927514S600x600Q85.jpg
Nicely fitting, let's go ahead.

http://inlinethumb30.webshots.com/42909/2882568630053927514S600x600Q85.jpg
All connections check and even the antenna lock and load.

http://inlinethumb52.webshots.com/45363/2761827290053927514S600x600Q85.jpg
now face to face...

http://inlinethumb32.webshots.com/43295/2881889990053927514S600x600Q85.jpg
Light test in front of the fan.

http://inlinethumb48.webshots.com/2095/2388734560053927514S600x600Q85.jpg

http://inlinethumb46.webshots.com/44909/2298941050053927514S600x600Q85.jpg
The bended rods has hole in it near the top, I put a small flashlight reflectors on all four.

http://inlinethumb01.webshots.com/45568/2325070710053927514S600x600Q85.jpg

Thanks Bro shamrage, nakakatamad na kasi yung fanmod na sa fan ilalagay yung led, ganoon na yun since time immemorial!! Oo nagtry ako lagyan siya ng katol, maganda rin yung effect nung nasa back na mod!!! Try ko i video!!! post ko soon.

Let the pinoy make all the difference!!! Sabi nga ng isang Mod sa Ziff Davies (para sa isang sikat na magazine), mag ipon daw ako ng 5 unusual na LED mods ko at ilalagay sa mag!!! so far may 3 na daw ako na nakita nila (ganda noon).

To continue posting after Nov. 03, 2009

Thanks for viewing.
