LED Bed Design Improvments

Well I was going around hack-a-day today and saw the "led pimp bed" article. Well I decided to take the challenge of designing the adaptive color controller. But first I wanted to make a few design improvements to the LED module itself

First, I drew out the schematic.

Then I layed out a 2 layer board.

Then I quoted the board at http://www.expresspcb.com
and here is the pricing I got:
Qty 25 x $15.37 = $384.25
Qty 50 x $7.86 = $393
Qty 100 x $4.11 = $411
Qty 250 x $1.86 = $465
Qty 500 x $1.11 = $555

Now I will not be purchasing any but for those who want to build kits I think your best bet is the 500.

I will continue this post later. I have to run now though.
