Notes 1. L1 can be any 10-100 Watt lamp. 2. R1 adjusts sensitivity. The greater the resistance, the less sensitive the colour organ becomes. 3. Since this project is powered by 120 VAC, it must be installed in a case. 4. You can also use the Teccor S2003LS1 SCR for SCR1. These give better sensitivity and brightness than the C106Y units.
