NP! Wow, hundred frames is a lot for this chip. Currently Maxi can handle up to 20-30 mid-size full-color pictures, Mini light – up to 40-60. Long pictures eat more space of course. As for me, short patterns look more effective – and you can pack more of them. Just a quick tip :)
Use Maxi default and Mini default libraries as the reference points (20 and 40 images respectively – not max, but close to the limit).

BTW, has anyone used the other lighting systems? How many images can be flashed there?

How's everyone?

Chung: You're welcome, glad that was quick! Also saw your pokemons library:

These two are the best - a bit taller than Maxi can display, but still nice. Something fresh among our arrows and chevrons, teheheh ;)

Also canadians left their mark, cheers from there!

Chung: I'll be processing orders again soon. Maxi's are here already, and mini lights will be ready Thursday-Friday. No worries!!!
PQR: Oh, thanks, Phil. Pleased to hear, really! :)

Want to share few pics:
Police Flasher lib for ledus wheelus mini – guy who asked me to draw it is a policeman, on a bike :)

And this Maxi Cat is from recent Anonymous pics, great one!

^^ better than Nero?)
This theme is called 'Fire show', written by my friend Tim (he's also on keyboards)

Still have that feeling – rotating the wheel is like operating an old manual movie camera :) Unusual.

Here we go – animations and users' images live preview.
For web and mobile devices, this time youtube won't spoil it!

Maxi bike wheel lights - users' images preview. LFGSS version. - YouTube

I did nothing)
Just googled - youtube can block video partly if it contains a piece of the song or remix sounding similar to the popular song. Crap. Need to change the music.

Oh gosh, youtube did it, not me. Must be because of the song grrrrr
Will re-upload

Fresh video – animated libs and users' images demo for the maxi lights.
I was posting gif renders and screenshots (Mario Toad, Nana, PolkaDot, Invaders, chevrons, ...), now it's time for a live video. Made a special LFGSS version :)

Thanks whatok, Ramaye, MrDrem, all anonymous buddies and twitterers for your cool designs! And thanks for the feedbacks and orders too!

Update: re-uploaded the video, now available on mobile devices and tv boxes. See below.

HatBeard: not everyone is from here, need to start putting some lfgss stickers inside the pack to invite them.
All: see a pic below ;)

Minor updates to the website – made single images downloadable directly from the Image Editor gallery

and from the Anonymous gallery

Actually they are not images, but Single-image-libraries – ready for uploading into the Ledus Wheelus Mini/Maxi wheel lights via usb. For those users, who don't want to mess with the standard multi-image libraries.

bothwell: Thanks! Your packet shipped today, together with others. Cannot promise to create unbreakable bike parts (simply impossible :), but will keep improving. Thanks for the feedback!

hoefla: cheers ;)

Pinky, Inky, Blinky

alasdairw: hey! old devices can sometimes switch off because the water gets onto the touch-sensitive 'Off' area or onto the microchip - if you're riding in rain/snow/other terrible conditions - discussed that few pages earlier this thread. We've made a software in which touch-buttons sensitivity can be reduced or disabled fully - so they will not react on water touches. Email me if you need more details, please.

+On new units there's no touch 'Off' button at all, so the water will not switch them off
+Added a transparent polyurethane coating for the microchip - kinda waterproof shell for extra durability.
There is no limit to perfection, but we trying to make improvements and the product itself better. Tnx.

hoefla: quite difficult to offer free hardware upgrades :) but the software is getting better - for free.
But if you'll be ordering some day again, I'll give you a discount coupon of course - as an early last year tester :)
Just drop me an email, please.

These are my test mini-s

+In action - adapted few Maxi patterns for the Mini light - LFGSS chevrons and red jump flash thing by Ramaye :)

3rd must be a Dutch flag colors, hmm..

Hi there!
Couple of pics of new improved Ledus Wheelus Mini lights (March 2013 version):
+New packaging, similar to the Maxi lights, usb cable included
+User's guide replaced with a bigger color user's manual
+Touch sensitive 'Off' area removed completely. Now 'Power' button both switches the unit on and off by click - rewired it the same way it's done on Maxi

Doctor Cake: Low batt or battery freezes outside and voltage drops. That's collllld.
Ah, glad you liked the new packaging, designed by me ;) And I used some of the public user's images to create it.

Ramaye: Yep, cleaning from time to time is a useful tip. That's not only a usb gadget but a bike part, right. A bit of attention and it will put a smile on your face longer.

Okay, few more things to show:
Oppan Gangnam Style theme for Maxi. Op op op op

+Refreshed a Maxi Default lib - space invaders now pre-uploaded and also it includes some of your images. Woo!

Holla everyone, howdy? Wanna share some project news:

1. Designed a better package for the Maxi lights, old envelopes were kinda utilitarian and a bit dull, right? So we replaced them with this box:
   
   

2. Yup, includes a mini-usb cable.

3. Old black-and-white quick user's guide replaced with a bigger colour user's manual. The most frequent questions I received from the customers covered there – now it's not only for geeks but for normal people as well :)
   

4. Added few more things inside a box, but that's a surprise, hehe ;)

It's difficult to make everything at once (and users' feature requests too), but step by step the product is getting better, which is nice.
Thanks for your orders, feedback and support – this helps to keep improving!
More news about the Mini lights coming.

Miso Soup: Maxi devices expected next week, Mini - March 11-12 - I hope. Drop me a note pls, I'll add you to the notification list (email is in the bottom here). Thanks!

Okay, few more drawings - Angry Birds theme preview! (hidden pig, hehe :)

Khornight2: Adobe discontinued AIR support for Linux (why?) => so we build Ledus Wheelus app for Win and Mac at the moment. Yup, needz AIR.
Try VirtualBox in Ubuntu - must work there.

hmm.. i've got an idea!

Is it spring already?

Yup, I saw!

A bit of project news. Was experimenting with different coatings recently - nitrocellulose, alkyd-urethane, polyurethane lacquer, 2-component epoxy, silicon and hot-melt adhesives (+couple more coming). As a result, the microprocessor unit on all Ledus Wheelus devices got a transparent 0.2-0.4mm polyurethane coating. Maxi-s, that were on sale this week already have it.

IMHO, extra durability isn't a bad thing. Especially for the bike parts :)

:) that was easy

There were a lot of anonymous patterns for Maxi (some of them by whatok, he-he), so I've organized them into libs - for non-twitterers, who cannot login on site and create a library - all here (ledus wheelus public libraries)

Thanks for your orders, hope the delivery is quick!

Here you are! ZIPP spinner 4 Alfie lib

'ZIPP' text? must be easy..

:D They have different faces!
