Description


Staying visible at night is important and this seemed like a very effective way to do so, while using very little energy.
So I set out to try a few things as buying a kit just seemed a little too easy and the price seems to really outweigh the components.

I wanted to try and keep the illumination as legal as possible, by using a red in the rear and a white in the front.

Details

Components

  • 16 × UV LEDS Quanity depends on the ammount you want to use and voltage etc. I'm using 4 per pod
  • 1 × Polymorph a small bag should do,
  • 1 × Phosphorescent paint or tape tape preffered, last longer and brighter, generally easier to apply.
  • 1 × Power source Depends on your led setup
