A short video I put together on the design and operation of my LED gauntlets. Code here: https://github.com/fibonacci162/LEDs/blob/master/burning_man_2015/gauntlets_burning_man_2015/gauntlets_burning_man_2015.ino

Totally sweet. Has a great look.

awesomesauce!!! well done mate

Very VERY cool and great workmanship! I’m interested in what the long-term performance will be since it still has some flex. Keep us posted. Good job!

simple, effective, awesome.

This is really cool! Why did you animate it like a long strip instead of a matrix? Also- if there’s going to be a fanny pack involved, the least you could do is give it some blinky lights!

@Charity_Stolarz to be honest, I procrastinated so long on this project that I didn’t have time to write the transformation code to turn my animations from strips into matrices :slight_smile: Also, good point about the fanny pack. My bad.

Hey what were the connectors you used? What are they called?

@Daniel_Wilson1 story of my life except I’m not even procrastinating- I’m just overly optimistic about what I can accomplish in a given amount of time. Stealing back my blinky fanny pack idea btw…

@Colin_Harrington I am not certain what the part number is. I found them at Al Lasher’s in Berkeley. They are a waterproof, keyed, 4-conductor barrel connector.

@Colin_Harrington these? http://www.aliexpress.com/item/3PIN-waterproof-transparent-connector-male-and-female-10cm-long-each/32261028380.html?spm=2114.13010608.0.71.NsbY8w

@Randal_B mine was actually a 4-pin (I didn’t use the 4th pin), but these look pretty similar.
