(улыбаясь всеми 42 зубами) Журнал «Коневодство» — традициям верны!


P.S. For those who do not read Russian. The author describes a technique for upgrading old dim LEDs: drill out the old crystal and put the SMD LED from the TV backlight there.

Ranayna:
Ooof, are bright LEDs so hard to source in Russia, or why would you go to such extreme lengths?
I mean, props to them, if you can't get the parts you want you need to get clever  :-+

At the end of the article, the author wrote that it is advisable to do this if it is more expensive to buy new ones or it is impossible to buy them at all. Perhaps this guy in the village has a lot of old led lights and a lot of remains from broken TV sets - from unnecessary he makes the right one. In an era of insatiable consumption, this seems ridiculous. But this is a kind of creativity and entertainment. Skills to find solutions, act outside the box, and so on. This is called savvy in Russia (I don't know - I found the right word for translation in the dictionary). I liked the article, I'll never need it, apparently, but it's funny.  :)

I would like to add that restorers may need it.

We still retain the skill to live if the Internet is turned off. Just in case.  :)
