Description
The Flickering Flame Control, FFC1, is used for simulated flame effects using low voltage LED lights. The intended application is professional use in theatrical and themed environments for various prop and scenery applications. The control has 6 dynamic flickering flame effects of various patterns, and one static (non-flickering) dimming mode. In the fastest flickering speed the frequency across the various modes ranges from about 1 Hz to under 6 Hz, the average flickering frequency at the fastest speed is 3.3 Hz.
The control has 3 buttons which operate the functions:
- Mode button, to choose the flame flicker effects pattern.
- Speed button, to control the rate of the flame flickering rate, mode and to control the on/off function of the control.
- Light button, used to control the one static dimming
The Flickering Flame Control is for low voltage LED lighting only. The control is for use in the 5.0 to 24 volts DC range. The maximum LED lighting load is 18 watts. The maximum load current at 12 volts DC is 1.5 amps. The control uses DC barrel connectors of the 2.1mm x 5.5mm size for power input and output. The DC barrel connectors are center positive +V polarity. The control retains the last setting when power is removed or the control’s off setting is used. The control body has a length of 3 inches nominal, overall length including the cables is 13 inches nominal. The body of the control is 0.6 inches wide and 0.25 inches thick nominal. The PWM frequency of the control is 240 Hz nominal. For video applications this may cause video banding. For DC voltage LED lighting loads only. The FFC1 control retains the last settings used when power is disconnected from the control and reconnected.
