:o this is brilliance. pure brilliance! :D

i might have just peed myself XD

Apply it to the whole frame and strap this to the back for some real juice and you could really fk with people!

Blinding piece of work though Tynan!

:D As a confirmed weight weenie that image won't appear on my monitor - I just get a box with a cross through it.

Would look amazing on tubes with fancy lugs cut out.

What's great about this stuff is that you can cut it to any shape you want, like having a large flexible flat light bulb that you can cut to any shape.

Fucking ace, you should do one for a stem too

Look at Lithium Ion rechargeable batteries, they are not small but they are very light which will be your main concern. The invertor can be made so it doesn't whine. do you have a link to the EL sheet you used and the specs for powering it?

Welll done that man. Top hacking.

The inverter set up as it is at the moment is only 109g with batteries so pretty light really.

I have no clue !!! I have a few bits of EL sheet from all over the place, most of it is fairly old - the one I do know the provenance of is the stuff I got from http://www.mutr.co.uk/ which to be honest is not very bright and the electrical connections are weird - so look around but don't get it from there (but I mutr.co.uk do cheap inverters for you to pull apart and make small bike sized ones) - also don't get it from http://www.rapidonline.com as they use the same stuff as mutr.co.uk (but if you want to experiment are very very cheap).

I know surelight sell the good stuff but they are very expensive.

Sorry that's the best I can remember, search around it is not too hard to find.

For power - 9V (4x AA or AAA batteries) of inverted power.

Rapid are selling the surelight stuff now and we get good discount at work. Hmmmmm, no red sheet which is a shame.

This is the slippery slope to MAX POWER-ville, I agree. You're all looking down that slope, watching tynan already sliding inexorably towards getting a PS3 on his bike or boilerplate-effect steel bits or something.

But I am so glad you chose to try out this luciferan madness on such an appropriately-named frame. You could tell people that it uses argon gas and everything.

:D

Do you want to be my friend ?

Rapid are already dirt cheap so with a discount they should be 'very dirt cheap'*

*not actual proper phrase.

Morning all! Much like most peeps who stumble across LFGSS I've been lurking around as a guest for a quite a while now. Thought it was about time I posted something so thought I'd give the dude with the swirly avatar some love. Brilliant idea!

My (in need or repair) bike bag is already strew with electroluminescent wire, I think the wire would be a better option for Scotttt, as you can sew it in as a trim, you can even get it as a wire with a lip running along it specifically to be sewn into material.

When I put my bag order in (last November) I actually asked if he could include some EL wire in the edge of the bag, he has some that I've sent him so hopefully when I eventually get my bag it will be included.

. . . getting a PS3 on his bike or boilerplate-effect steel bits or something.

What a great idea, I might try and get a fuck off 32" plasma on my stem so I can watch 'celebrity cribs' on the way to signing on.

fuck, using this on bags?!?! that's gotta be scott's ticket to millionairedom! haha! awesome idea :)

Welcome, and what a better way to start here than to praise me !!

Calling you a cunt would be in line with forum etiquette. (You cunt).

From WIKI

"Electroluminescence is the result of "radiative" recombination of electrons and holes in a material"

Your bike is radiative!!!!!!

When we learned a bit about semi-condictuors one of the points we learned about was "hole scavengers". As you can imagine that got a few laughs.

When I put my bag order in (last November) I actually asked if he could include some EL wire in the edge of the bag, he has some that I've sent him so hopefully when I eventually get my bag it will be included.

The wire is great stuff, I've got meters of the stuff, what colour did you send him, did you send him the stuff with the lip built in and do you want to buy an inverter from me !! :)

Let there now be an extended period of killing.

Don't bother with the patent just come up with a fancy ad package & sell it!
Look at how well the T'shirts sold! Give it 4-5 months and you could sell those T'shirts for twice the price to all the fashionable chaps who have seen them around.

Same rules apply here!

You could extend to clothes... A Cameo style cod piece would be one for the night ride?

Pm me with what you want and we can discuss. I'm thinking a red strip up the seat tube for a rear light, build my own invertor to run off a LiPo rechargeable battery which could drop in the seat tube and weigh considerably less than what you have, or a none contact dynamo type system driven off the rear wheel (intensity will vary with speed quite a bit though).

You're absolutely right. How could I have got my first post so wrong??! Ah, sheeeeet...

that is the best thing i have seen on this forum. tynan you are a genius

No, he's a cunt........but a very clever one at that :)
