## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=GB-3118-0808-0003:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/GB-3118-0808-0003:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

Light your robot’s way across the game field with the LED Headlight for FTC! Designed with the FIRST Tech Challenge in mind, **this dimmable LED Headlight** helps to illuminate the scenes that a robot's optics systems gathers visual data from—whether that optics system is a basic webcam, or high-end AI camera (like the [HuskyLens](https://www.gobilda.com/huskylens-ai-camera-vision-sensor-with-gobilda-case/?srsltid=AfmBOoqISEySxxVv0F31Gl_VT5YRfcZDzAmC3Ex4KfKg-12WrdlN8kVx)).

### Intelligent Illumination

Controlling this LED Headlight is as easy as controlling a servo! Just plug it into a servo port, and you’ll get **fine-grained PWM control** of the LED brightness. This allows you to dial-in the light for your computer-vision in a snap.

Providing consistent lighting to your robot increases the repeatability of its optic-centric actions during autonomous operation. The LED Headlight’s level of illumination is perfect for being able to be seen across a game field without being so bright you can’t look directly at it.

### Input/Output Ports

The Headlight possesses two each of TJC8 connector ports and JST-PH connector ports. While they are FH-MC, all ports can act as either input or output ports, and all ports use PWM as their communication protocol.

Two TJC8 ports across two opposite sides allow for signals and power to be delivered to the Headlight via your servo wiring setup. The Headlight also has JST PH ports for connecting to controllers like the REV Control Hub. These ports are located such that when the Headlight is placed over another component’s 14mm hole, the JST PH ports are accessible through the hole.

### Easy Attachment

The Headlight possesses four M4 thru-holes on the goBILDA® 32mm square pattern. Each thru-hole has a hex counterbore for the easy capture of hex head screws and locknuts.
