Hi everyone! My first thread here - yay! I got fed up of stinking of paraffin, so I've just started building some LED Poi and judging by the prototypes I built, they're going to be BRIGHT.
Per Head :
3 x AAA batteries
4 x Super Bright LEDs
Each head should be about 240mm long and 30mm round, giving off a bar of light 18mm by 30mm. At the moment, I'm running the LEDs at about twice what they're specc'ed for so I'm not sure how long they'll last - time will tell. The LEDs I have now are blue, but I've seen some green ones which are ~3x brighter!
Has anyone played around with PIC Microntrollers? They're what make the Aerotech staffs etc. work, and I'm thinking of modifying the POI I'm working on so that they can flash different colours / patterns and stuff...

re FireGeeK on another thread.
How are you mixing them? Just two colours on at a time? I plan to strobe mine at speeds higher than the eye can perceive to mix the colours more effectively. I've not (yet) tried this, but it ought to work - that's how computer monitors work after all (well, sorta )!
