Hi everyone,
I did some searching but didn't find an acceptable answer (to me, anyway)...
I'm building a mostly decorative sliding barn door to mount on the side of my garage. There will be a decorative carving mounted to the front of the door. the carving is flat, and about 3/4" thick, and about 6' x 6' (tall and wide). The carving will have about 1/4"-1/2" of space between it and the door.
I want to backlight the carving to make it stand out a little more at night. I want to power the lights with a battery of some sort, and I imagine LED lighting would be the most efficient form of lighting.
Can anyone recommend resources on designing a circuit with small batteries? The battery pack will be mounted to the back of the door, so there isn't room for anything really "big".
Thanks for your time, and I look forward to posting an update once it is complete, or even closer to complete!
