FS: LED climate controls w/ or w/o changing temp knob, round 2: prices changed and process improved... Options

[pittfirefighter]

alright guys we're going to try this again... be aware that i am at school for mechanical engineering so i am extremely busy but since i've gotten quite a few PM's about my closed thread... i decided to start it up again.... so here we go....

PLEASE DO NOT PM ME.... my PM box is just about full with all important messages i have to keep... so please do not PM me....

heres how its going to work.... i'm going to start a list with username and color choice... i will be doing one user at a time... add your name to the list via reply... when its your turn on the list... i will PM you confirming your "order"... current color choices include red, blue, green, yellow, pink? (have to double check this one), and any combination of the above... if you want to try another color just let me know... indicator buttons and background colors can be different or the same color, also there's an option for the color changing knob.... just some quick info:

every LED is hand soldered into place, there is an option for the color changing temp knob... going from blue in the cold to red in the hot area... both options use approximately 30 LED's, unit is 100% plug and play on return

shipping - currently i have extra AC units here therefore on order, i will begin to make the unit, at completion: i will take pics and send to buyer, payment is then due with approval of unit, you then have the option of sending me your unit and on arrival, i will immediately ship you your completed unit OR for a LARGE deposit, i will ship you your custom unit first in which you can ship me yours when you receive, once i get yours, i will return the deposit...

price - non-color changing knob LED's is a $40 charge including labor and parts, color changing knob is a $70 charge including labor and parts, prices DO NOT include shipping, every unit is guaranteed to work on arrival and will work with buyer if they have any problems at all, also be aware that half the LED's need resistors or custom work and custom wiring to get them to work properly in the unit, hence the high price my time is about 8 work hours per unit, deposit is $100 if custom unit is sent first, returned on receiving unit: i will be doing one unit at a time... so please be patient with me, it takes approx 1 week to complete


note: color choices for non-color changing knob: i can keep it the original colors with a color of your choice in the actual knob itself, or i can do all blue.... i cannot do all red because the red will not shine through the blue in the cold region

i will be updating the post with pics, you can look for the old post if needing to see pics now, look near the end of the post

List:

username / color / color change / deposit option (Y/N):

1. goferris / blue / N / ?
2. 94celiGTS / ? / ? / ?
3. celica power / blue-bg red-indicator / Y / ?
4. 6strngs / blue / Y / N
5. peterkos / blue / y / y
6.? dagreat1 / blue / y / ?

supradog1 and shocker i have not forgot about you.... PM me

[goferris]

goferris- blue- non color change knob.

[pittfirefighter]

add your name to the list and i'll let you know when your turn comes up.... might not be too long if the other two back out... they have a little bit of time to respond cause they PMed me about it before... i'm starting goferris's now

[Celica power]

bleu and changing temp knob

[GriffGirl]

That is the coolest **** I've ever seen! Absolutely brilliant!

[6strngs]

I want one! The video of the color changing didn't work for me and I don't quite understand what it is. I'm going to try to make sure I have the latest version of quicktime and then I'll try it again. until then I can't give an answer on the color change option

6strngs / blue / ? / N

Edit, ok, I got the video to work. But I want to know, if I don't get the color change option then can the color in the temperature indicator still be changed, and will the temperature still be able to have blue and red, or do those only come with the color change option?

you can have the little indicator in the knob be whatever color you would like if you don't want it color changing while the actual background light that has the hot/cold temp zone can either be all blue, blue and red in respective areas or partial red (the red will not shine through the blue colored zone)


ALSO! i have a completed total red one ready to ship... with or without color changing option

This post has been edited by pittfirefighter: Oct 30, 2007 - 5:10 PM

[6strngs]

in that case, I'd like all the background lights and indicators blue, including the knob. and the temperature to have blue and red, but a non-color-changing knob. in other words:

6strngs / blue / n / n

[Shocker]

pm sent.

[dagreat1]

ok add me to numbre 7. I want blue and i want color changing.

[Element]

what is the deposit price? it's gettin cold and i'm pretty sure i'll need heat

EDIT: srry, missed it in first post...for those of you that missed it like me, $100 deposit if you get the custom unit first

This post has been edited by Element: Oct 31, 2007 - 9:30 AM

[pittfirefighter]

just a clarification... all blue background including knobs and blue indicators is $40, for either color changing knob or non-color changing knob with dual color background lights (blue and red) the same brightness and color as the rest is $70... i can do blue and red background color for $40 but it will be with a white light behind it so they will be a different color than the rest of the blue light in the HVAC unit... just a thought.... 6strngs - let me know what you want to do...


also i'm experimenting with the fan control knob... i'm thinking about making it so that only the position on the background lights up when you have it turned to that... so HI will only be lit when the fan is turned there and OFF will only be lit when the fan is off and same with the two positions in between, anyone interested in this?

[dagreat1]

never mind... well if you can send me pics i might do the deposite option...

I do not want that option. I think it will be "messy", imo. that is... I want full blue backroundlight, and bright blue in the "plastic" on each button. The temprature.knob I want to change from blue to red, as in your video.

ok then, in that case put me down for the color changing knob. I liked the way it looks it just wasn't worth $30 to me, but to have the blue/red and the color changing is worth the extra $30 to me. so, put me down for color changing.

[Celica power]

I want the buttons bleu and red too

[pittfirefighter]

BUMP... list is growing.... orange added as a color

[Shocker]

WOOT for orange.

[tomazws]

[stetsonaw]

Do you have any SS-III HVAC's on hand? You know, temp knob, the rest is buttons? Would like to do the deposit if you have one.

[celicadude04]

Off Topic: Just wondering if you had any of the really tiny stock bulbs with the plastic bases? I need one if you have any that you would sell. Thank you

[stetsonaw]

superlumination has them.

[goferris]

just wondering the status on mine. LMK

[stetsonaw]

has anybody heard from him recently on this? i've seen a few other posts from him in the past few days, but nothing on this.

[pittfirefighter]

stetson no luck on the auto A/C controls, i don't have any here nor have i ever worked on one.... goferris yours is almost done... i had to order another batch of blue LED's because my last sets brightness was too high... i think it looked too light of a blue (more like white) with not enough actual color

ok... i'm trying to do it myself, i have plenty of solder experience. thanks though.

[dagreat1]

this is still happening right?

[pittfirefighter]

yeah just a little behind cause i had to wait for new LED's due to a sh**** shipment i got

[dagreat1]

status?

[94CelicaDragon]

Dude, you are a genius! That Is some awesome ****. One question, Can I get white LED's? like the blueish white color, If you cant do that, would you be able to do Orange LED's? Im definitely Interested In this.

EDIT:
Nevermind, I see that Orange has been added, so what about white?

This post has been edited by 94CelicaDragon: Dec 1, 2007 - 12:08 AM

[dagreat1]

i think white would be just as easy

infact i've seen it in others

[trdproven]

I want mine straight up Amber (JDM) style. I'm just scared, I won't be able to put this new one back in. I've never tried, perhaps I won't be able to put back the cables to the firewall or something. Stickies not clear or detailed enough.

[dagreat1]

who has gotten theres done?

[goferris]

i guess mine is almost done but i haven't heard anything from him about it for a while.
i can wait though. i'm patient.

[Shocker]

I wanted amber too but i dont think its a color choice..

[94CelicaDragon]

So Is this guy still doing this or what? Has anyone heard from him?

[pittfirefighter]

sorry guys but my 3sgte just blew a piston so all my time has been going to it and rebuilding the engine... i have a few units being completed and worked on but they are going to take a while with all my attention on my other celi and school... i have not taken any payment from anyone so i hope no one is expecting too much from me.... i will PM any members when their unit is done and ready to be shipped...

[thespacepanda]

Edited to remove the color change feature. I realized that in Houston it'll only get a chance to change to red about 4 times a year.

[dagreat1]

hello?

[pittfirefighter]

like i said just a little while ago... all my time has been concentrated on getting my 3s-gte back on the road... i will pm you when yours is either complete or being started to confirm the details... like i said i have taken no payment... and by no way has any member committed to still purchasing theres unless i have PMed you and we have spoken about the details... sorry for the delay... my time is just stretched very thin right now

[94CelicaDragon]

94CelicaDragon/Whiteish blue/Y
Do you know what I mean by "Whitesh blue" White with a blue hint to It, Like the head light color, If you can do It.

Im assumeing the color would be similar to what you told goferris, stetson no luck on the auto A/C controls, i don't have any here nor have i ever worked on one.... goferris yours is almost done... i had to order another batch of blue LED's because my last sets brightness was too high... i think it looked too light of a blue (more like white) with not enough actual color

Let me know when you have the time, I know your busy, no rush!

[94celi757]

Wow thats cool man, im really digging the color change temp knob. How much is it for the temp knob color change, with the blue led behind the fan buttons, and the defroster buttons etc including shipping, will you supply an actual ac unit if we dont want to ship you ours, i think this is a must for the car.

[trdproven]

I want full amber ones how much for you to do the work and provide the CC?
