I think it may be time to post my disco bar end plugs and 'curryer' bag LED tags, they both stink and are at prototype stage but people are lapping this shit up at the moment. :)

I like this thread, it's like Blue Peter meets Tron.

I want to see this on a dark winters night, an army of slave sabers tearing up the road!

I was originally sizing up something like this using a strip of the surface mount red LEDS down the back of the seat post, probably in a machined groove (short seatpost on a roadbike should stand it)
and a voltage red and rechargeable battery in the seatpost tube. The EL sheet
is a little cooler though,

Might not be relevent but my RP night light recharges from a usb, and lasts 10 hours. Well done Mr T, but you must cycle on stage to receive your Doctorate.

I know nothing of your techno-majik, but could you use one of those kinetic battery things like on watches to charge it up, so then you'd never have to fiddle with batteries etc?

Nice one tynan, although I'd be scared it would attract cars like butterflies to a flame..
Can you make it blink or cycle through a variety of colours?
Bike safety peeps will wet themselves over this :)

Fucking sweet tynan. I sort of did something similar last year, but i just bought some EL wire off ebay and wrapped it around my seatpost, it looked kinda shit and it wasn't very bright!

Mine is too!!!!

Impressive, Tynan. Seeing the tape makes me tempted to wrap my bars in it and then with clear bar tape over the top.

Or GFP maybe.
Basically, EL is one thing, but I think we can do away with the wires.....
But i fscking love this idea, and am a bit bored of revision, so thinking up some ideas....
Yeah, it's interesting. I've got a lab coming up in which I synthesise I nice compound that fluoresces.

Quantum dots maybe? I haven't a clue; it was something that one of my tutors confused us with because he researches something similar.

If you are not getting enough light out ramp up the power, mutr.co.uk/ sell 9V inverters that make the EL wire much much brighter than a standard inverter, I think they are around £7 - also surelight now do an ultra-bright El wire which is brighter (you might have guessed that from the name!)

I might request your services oh king of EL.

Extra wire is no problem as you simply just snip off what you don't need, as the wire gets shorter it get's brighter (up to a certain threshold).

[EDIT] I just realised you probably meant loads of extra non-EL wire leading from from the powerbox to the start of the EL wire proper ?

You could also reduce that fairly easily.

I am currently in talks with some ex-display butterflies, they reckon with some make up and the right costumes they could pull it off.
