I need to get a new suit...

Well get one. lol. Save up the $$$.

Well the girl who made the one you saw At fureh is doing a new one but My trust in her ability is shot I kinda just want to ask for my money back.

Aww thats a shame, I hope you get your money back.

yah

amazing

Your pose is the LED-undersuit-at-a-dance equivalent of holding out a mic and letting it drop.

Dropping a mic... dunno if that is a good thing. lol

Cool led's in some easy wais the best of it cool and easy to do just you habe to have some skils hey i got an idea if you want to dance on a song and you want to shut on and of you leds to song you can do a easy circuit or how lowd is the song in that scale your leds will light up and the same on tune what frequencies are amplified and more hearable it light up on it you can find it its called spectral analyzer but the easyest way to do it get a 9 volt battery and if thoose leds are for 12 volt i show you a trick get two 9 volt batteries put them into series and you got 18volt that is too high you should have go get some rezistors and a potencial meter now the trick of it you can regulate the bright or you can go in mode of stable bright when you leds are getting darker simpli decrease the resitance and you go it brighter but watch for overvolting it can burm yout suit so be carefull or i got another idea make a voltage regulator that will automatikly holds on 12 volts and you havent care about it ok but back the circuits so there are opinitons of blinking in whatever time the whole circuit is easy astable circuit now im using right no for frequency changer a circuyt with integrate processor (dont worry it has only 8pins) and why ist it butter ? Well the clasical astable circuit after time it become not so stable the frequency can change itself but the NE-555 fix it its like a PWM regulator but we are not looking for well if you want anythink to ask for elektrycity about anythink realy anythink ask me i will awnswer in 94.78% (btw my last calculation of my own statistics update a week ago so but it never drops under 87 and it wil never get 100 r 96%

1. 9v batteries only contain usually 565 mAh. My suit consumes about 6amps on the 12v side. I'd suck a pair of 9v's dry in a few mintues. And also regulating a battery using a pot and a resistor?!?! Thats very wasteful and hot. I use a SBEC (Switching Battery Eliminator Circuit) basically a DC to DC converter. Gernally used for giant scale airplanes. It takes 6-60v in and spits out a nice 5v line up to 20amp draw. I could hook up 6 9v batteries in series if I wanted and feed it into my system. But, again, They are bulky and heavy. Instead I use Lipo batteries, 4400 Mah 11.1v (3s) They give me enough power for about.... 7-8 hours. Depends which mode I'm in.

2. Music reaction, everybody seems to think I should do it. And I will, I have a amplified mic module, ready to tie into my teensy. I'm currently getting my code re-rewitten to be more effecient, and at that point, I'll add in the mic to play a part in the light effects. But even then, I'm not too much of a hurry to implement it, choreographing to music myself is actually funner. I can pick any beat and run with it with my paw buttons. And do unique effects. I can convince people that I have 'sensors' in my feet paws, but its just a trick. Or anywhere, for that matter.

Thank you for your how-to, I kinda got it. But my Arduino based microcontroller is a little bit more advanced than a 555 timer.

ok i i just get mz verzion as the simplest but if you have this tech in it ok BUT WHERE DA FUK ZOU HAVE THE BATTERIES?! those 6 amps like mz peltier elemnt TEC and one PC transformer but if you get more advanced think for controling ok i didnt say enythink

Cheers for lipo use.
Why don't you just use a pixel driver?
Easily programmed over artnet and tons of IC support.

Lipo's rule. I dunno why more ppl who do wearable electronics don't use em.

As for pixel drivers... I'd rather the more hands on with the Teensy. Becides, its a LOT smaller and compact.

hey I heard that you and dandylions made the LED raptor as well - they are incredible suits with the lights! Does that raptor have an FA?

Thank you. I think he only has a twitter. cyfursuit

I also have a twitter for my LED business. made2glow give that a follow for my latest and greatest.

I don't have twitter - but thank you all the same! Incredible work!
