Strobon 2-6S 3A Regulator and Synchroniser – PWR3A
£19.90 Inc. VAT
This module powers and synchronises compatible Strobon series LEDs.
Strobon PWR 3A is a Strobon navigation light synchroniser with a built-in 3A UBEC Power supply. This little board can convert 2-6s (7.4-22.5v) battery voltage to 5V and generates a PWM signal to supply and synchronize the navigation lights. The power input is via a XT30 male connector – suiting batteries with XT30 female.
Compatible with:
- Strobon V2 Navigation Strobe Light
- Strobon V2 Cree Edition Navigation Strobe Light
- Strobon XL Cree Edition Dual Colour Navigation Strobe Light
- Strobon Navigation Strobe Lights
You can also use the isolated RC-IN socket to ON/OFF the lights over your spare RC Rx channel.
- Dimension:50mm x 16mm x 10mm
- Weight: 7gr
- Base Power Consumption: 5mA @ 2S
- Internal StepDown Convertor Specs.: 3A 26v max.
- Optional RC Control Input: Standard 50hz Servo PWM.
*Signal & Ground only, (+) pin not connected.

Can I use a Y-lead to control more than 4 strobon V2 lights on this regulator, or do I need to buy a second Regulator for the additional 3 lights? Thanks Paul

Hi Paul, you could use Y-leads. The regulator has pretty of current capacity to drive more than 4 Strobon V2s. The regulator is rated for 3A, current cunsumption for Strobon V2 is as follows:
- Current Consumption per hour @5V
- Strobe: 60mA (1A when flashing)
- Blink: 70mA (150ma ON)
- Heartbeat: 120mA
- Rolling Beacon : 170mA (1A when flashing)
- Static: 140mA
- Current Consumption per hour @5V
How to light your multirotor: Lighting is obviously a necessity for nighttime flying, however it’s also really helpful when flying in daylight. Unlike helicopters, multicopters typically lack defining features to help with orientation; lighting is therefore a great solution. It makes most sense to employ a navigational lighting setup – Red on the Port (left) side, Green on the Starboard (right) side and a white strobe astern. When it comes to selecting your lights there are lots of options: LEDs, HPLEDs (High power LEDs), Strip lights and Strobes. Regular LEDs are inexpensive and come in an array of colours. While they consume little power, LEDs are best suited to nighttime applications as they are usually too dim to be seen in bright daylight. Alternatively the next generation of LEDS, namely HPLEDs and CREE LEDs are much brighter. They can be driven by much greater currents meaning that some can emit over 1000 lumens. At night they can be seen for miles, but more importantly they are visible in bright daylight. Since overheating is destructive, HPLEDs must be mounted on a heat sink to allow for heat dissipation. Both regular and HP LEDs are easy to wire up – however note that LEDs will only light up with correct electrical polarity and that they have a maximum current rating which must not be exceeded. To limit the amount of current through an LED a suitable resistor should be used. Strips lights are fun when it comes to night flights and are fantastic for orientation purposes. Some can be powered/controlled with an LED RGB Driver to cycle between different modes and colours. LEDs of all types can be turned into a strobe by using a suitable controller, strobes have the added bonus of low power consumption. The key to all lighting installations is to think about voltage and current requirements, a voltage regulator/UBEC will usually be necessary to help meet this requirements. Finally it is advisable to power lights from a separate battery to your flight battery.

Once I had the Strobon V2 strobes and cree strobe, getting the regulator to keep them all in line was a no brainer! I certainly am not disappointed with it. I have it in my E-Flite Opterra with red/green static wingtip lights a bottom cree strobe and a rear strobe. This setup has made a huge difference to the visibility of the Opterra which normally would dissappear into the background on a cloudy day. This amazing kit has given me a lot more confidence flying it in less than optimal weather conditions.
