50ohm pot wired along with 10ohm fixed resister, and on/off switch

how it looks on the platform all wired up. If I make another, it will be made of pcb material so the wiring and led will be integral part of mount.

powered up turned all the way down dim

powered up turned all the way up bright

IF ANYONE WANTS AN LED MOUNT LIKE THE ONE I MADE JUST SEND ME A PM, I DONT HAVE ANY STOCK TO MAKE THEM AT THE MOMENT BUT I'LL BE MORE THEN HAPPY TO GET SOME.

EDIT: I'M NOTICING A LOT OF FLICKERING WHEN THE RAMBO IS DOING ITS PID ROUTINE, SO I ORDERED A BETTER VOLTAGE AND CURRENT REGULATOR TO ELIMINATE THIS PROBLEM.
I am trying to learn so I have a question, what would happen if you disabled PID?
If you wanted to keep PID where would you place the voltage regulator, on the output of the power supply or the input to the LEDs?

problem fixed, using this regulator below. no more flickering.

current and voltage regulator from ebay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/221200620645?ss ... 1497.l2649
simple setup, install and turn your led pot all the way bright, then adjust the voltage pot on the regulator till the flickering goes away. There's also a current adjustment if you need it.
