    So I want to make this TW "chase light" board powered by the truck's 12V system and controlled by a uController to do certain things.

    Anyways, should I put the letters on separate boards to make the letters the same height/width OR does this look okay??? I figure that at "distance" a person won't be able to make out the individual lettering anyways?! BUT, when up close to the "pod", you can see and "enjoy" the design!!! :notsure::D:p

    Btw, these are NOT high brites because I can't afford this many LEDs as high brites are pretty expensive. This is, more or less, proof of design/concept for now!!! :thumbsup: Also, surface mount simply cannot be an option at the moment!!! :pout:

    Seperate boards is my vote/opinion.If not roll with what you got and way to be creative!:thumbsup:
    Also surprised to see that you're at Jacks Box!:anonymous::eek::laughing:

    I'm currently at the one on Beach near Heil. :p:D:thumbsup:

    Thanks for the input bro. I can hardly wait to connect all of it and write the embedded code. I plan on doing different "flash patterns"... that's the idea at least. They make LED drivers to make things easier to do, but I have NO experience with those, let alone interfacing to a uController???!!! Later, but not at the moment. :thumbsup::D
