This stirling engine charges a supercapacitor with a small dc motor.
A blokking diode prevents the capacitor from discharging once the flame died.
Even after a few days i can start the stirling using the switch.
To prevent the capacitor from overcharging during operation i added a powerled parallel connected to the capacitor.
The led starts producing light at around 2.5Volt and draws more current once the votlage rises.The light comming from the led seems even brighter
as the flame from the candle.
To stop the engine i simply short out the dc motor.
Im verry happy this finaly works.

They actually work pretty well.
The light level and color is good, led strip lights 12v maybe a little less yellow than
halogen. They consume less LED Panel Light wholesale power, and run a little cooler as well, while
giving off the same level of light.
The only downside is that they cost more, and they don't last as long
as the rating on the box would have T5 LED Tube manufacturer you believe.
