IKEA Storm + powerRGB = G R E A T

Here you can see my IKEA Storm Lamp Mod using the powerRGB circuit and the tinyRGB firmware.

First . Here are the steps:

  1. Assemble the lamp but leave the paper shield down
  2. Remove the contacts from the bulb’s holder:

  4. Build the powerRGB circuit on a PCB that fits the inner of th mounting:

  5. Solder some power supply cables to the PCB and pull them though the mounting down to the lamps base and put the PCB into the holder:

  6. So thats it. Now reassemble the lamp with shield and connect a propper power supply to the board.
  7. The most important step: Re-Design the Box:

    Hi,

    the lamps creates color by changing permanently the Red, Green and Blue Component so more than 7 colors are created. You can find the circuit here: http://tobiscorner.floery.net/projects/avr/tinyrgb/powerrgb/70
