I'm building a custom LED thingy for under the seat of my scooter, and it's been about a billion years since I dabbled in electronics so I just need a bit of a sense check if anyone's able please!
What's a good quality 18650 battery, and what's a good seller? I've heard far too many negative things about fake batteries and whatnot.
I'll be charging it with this:
I'll be adding a little push-button switch to turn the light on, and it'll turn off automatically. For this I intend to use this:
I've not yet decided on an LED, need to research them still. However, can I wire directly to that PCB, or do I need a relay / driver for the LED?
I guess this depends on what LED I use, but any advice would be greatly appreciated. The most important aspect here is quality, reliability and compactness. I'll be 3D printing the housing as well so it's very flexible in terms of dimensions and shape.
Anythnig wrong with what I've posted here?
Cheers
