Hi

Is it possible to put LEDs in your case (with a window) and have the lights blink on and off while your comp is on??? (the ligts are in the case and seen through the window)

>?

yea.. thats simple... putting them in and making them ligh up. now making them "blink" could be simple to, if all of them are to do it at once.

I am the person around here to talk to if you need LEDs. Im out of them at the moment, but i will have some more in a few weeks, you might want to use some of my colorchanging LEDs in your case.

LED in action (requires DivX)

How much do the LED's cost???

Are they cheap

He wants them to blink one after the other. That, i think, will be pretty challenging...

I'm not sure where it was. But, i saw these little LED things that stuck anywhere and could swivel in any direction, shining on anything. I could probably figure it out when i get home.

the color changing ones will run about... 2.5-3 dollars each. Im getting ready to make a large purchase and havent gotten the bulk rates back yet. Most of my other regular leds are anywhere from .10 to 1.00 each.

and if you want sequentual i have a little doodad that will make 10 leds flash in sequence. a chacer of you will.

Tell me more about the sequence ones

How much for a chaser?

I like the Couger I just got and am planning to do some modding on it

Emblems, leather work, LEDS maybe some cathodes?

Chrome and Gold plating too.

Ok.. the chacer circut comes as a kit or i can put most of it together and all youd have to do is add LEDs.

in kit form they are 10 dollars... and assembled... well lest say 15-20 dollars total (not including leds attached.)

You can take the leds and mount them and run wires back to the circuit. if you want to do somthing for a car let me know... they need to be limited to around 9V but i can make it work. let me know what you have in mind and ill tell you if its possible.

its fairly cheap to have em just blink right-not chaser- i mean i got a set of blinking high ouput leds that screw on my motorcycle tires for only like 5.00 :-) (tires flys) and they look awesome

Ya, you can get valve cap leds at Wally world mart in various colors.

They are motion activated, packed on little cards and stuck on a hanger strip on the side of a shelf unit.
I always like to go by and give em a slap, watch all those cards start flashing all over the place

Fun Fun FUn.

I kinda wonder if I could bust one open and replace the color led inside with a UV led instead? Might be a cool effect.

Pugsley,
Can you send me a pic of the kit and parts, and maybe any instructions.
I'll see what I can figure out to do with one. I should have some leds I could use it on soon

Oh ya, did you get em mailed yet or maybe on Teusday since monday a holiday?
Just got back online again today, didn't find any new emails.

um yea... im lookin at them now. ill have them sent out tuesday.

And they do make flashing LEDs. they cost like a buck or somthing like that. i can probbly get them cheaper... id have to look.

Say, whats the specs on the leds, like 1.5 volt or 2v?
I'll most likely be running off 12v so I figure I'll have to wire in series or drop the volts somehow.

umm... the reds are 2 for shure. the UV.. i duno. i still havent hooked them to 5V to see if they pop. ill do that and let you know... if not just assume somthing like 2.5

Ok,
If you got a camcorder with zoom might want to set it up to watch if it pops.

I saw a short video once with an led exploding, kinda cool, bad video though wasn't that great.
