Subject: [alt-beam] Symet


Hey List,
I just finished my first 1381 Symet. It has 6 1000uf Capacitors and a
solarbotics solar panel. In bright light it triggers about once a second, but
the bursts are barily enough to move it anywhere. So I put a LED in between
the 3rd leg of the 2.7 1381
and th negative of the capacitors. Nothing happened, i then reversed the
polarity of the Led, that didn't work so i tried a regular diode, that didn't
work either. How can I make the bursts more powerful? Any help would be
appreciated.
THanks , Geoff
