Neon LED Stormtrooper Helmet

I hope the batteries won't warm up after a while ^^;

a picture from the outside would give a better idea of the result

Whose is this Gordon?

lol, wonder how it will look after u wear it

don't you go blind of seeing too many lights on?

what are the blue led lights for? I mean wouldn't it hamper your vision rather than help?

Use some sort of knob on the sides of the helmet (the ears) so you can slide the eye glass up and down. Also do your armor up my installing blue neon on your boots or chest and add some hydraulics while your at it ^^;

Does this mean you can see in the dark? D:

That is cool. Good luck working on it.

did u do that when u were in singapore? cos the newspapers in the background is no doupt singapore newspapers

Looks cool. But does it use rechargeable batteries? And how long do they last..

Woah, that's cool, never heard of something like this before ^^

Why would you need some lighting's inside a helmet?

"It wont't warm up"

BUT IT WILL MAKE YOU BLIND!

haha they show what it looks like form the outside.
And the sliding down lense looks ambitious GL lol.

The neons might not heat up, but wouldn't it be difficult to see with a set of lights right above your eyes?

You should also add a Rocket-Booster to your Trooperarmor, Danny.
Or add some parts (Ears and tail) from a Bunny-dress.
Other People will enjoy this ;-)

LED light exposure is apparently good for the skin according to some german researchers.

Something you might be interested in, considering your gripes about acne/badskin.

lol i like it.. i thought using LED lights might be bad for your skin? or maybe your eyes @.@ in this case..

PS: danny i cant post puchi Blurbs why ; ;

Just my own personal bias, but I hate blue LEDs. How about a red glow instead? ;]

Uhm... It's either neon, OR LED and judging by your picturees it's LED :)

Neon tubes are a wholly different kettle of fish.

Nice. reminds me of the shirt that detects wireless signal strength.

I think the de-steamer function would be the most useful. Anyone who's been in a non-porous costume for any length of time (I got "volunteered" to be the school mascot during a football game in college - thought I was going to die from the heat ^^;;) would appreciate that.

I wonder how long the batteries would last. LOL at pimp my armor.

What kind of voice changer are you going to get? I need one too... "What if he doesn't survive? He's work a lot to me"

If you had nightvision with that and you're in business...

Have probably missed it but are there posts on how you made these?

This is awesome ^^

Now I want a Storm Trooper Helmet :3

Nice, now you could be a tuned up storm trooper he he [>__<]

Eveready Nyan~

Yep, I think this will look great :D Hope we can see it in the near future

wouldn't it hurt your eyes if you put those bright LEDs inside the dark helmet environment?

oh, Danny, about modding your lens so it could slide down to de-fog...how about doing what motorcycle helmets do and add open-able vents around the mouth piece area? They also have ones above the visor, but that wouldn't look too good with a trooper helmet, maybe do it on the grey areas beside the eye peice too.

I'm soo~ sorry, but I dont find a way to contact you, Danny, or the community, but I have problems with the Puchi Blurbs! I cant post a message, I always get always an error page:

I dont want to upload anything, I click on the update button.

Please help me, thank you :)

is this the new x-ray vision where u can "undress" girls thru these lenses? XD

The storm trooper Modification that you should be working on is the streaming jets of electricity which project out of both gloves and go 3 to 4 feet outwards from the gloves. Blue or blue and red colors to make it look like the Dark Jeddi Force would be good. /Grin.

There are anti-fog liquid sprays that you can get for swimming goggles and airsoft goggles
I don't exactly know how it works, but my cousin in HK plays airsoft very seriously and since he wears glasses, he seems to always carry a small bottle around everywhere with him.
I bought a bottle for use on my swimming goggles and they work pretty well

You can definitely use it on regular glasses as it really helps in the winter when eating hot steamy food

Maybe you could also put some Night Vision sights with GPS inside that helmet~ =D

You should be able to pick up some good ultra bright LED kits that are easily modifiable to run off 12v DC battery at Don Quixote. Look in the car section - they have a number of different sets with multiple LEDs running off a single multicore. They sound like exacty what you're looking for.

That's quite interesting =o Was there a reason for choosing blue? I'd guess Danny would choose orange xD

The helmet looks so high tech

My friends helmet has little fans to exhaust his breathe out so it doesn't fog up. Just make sure you don't have bad breathe!

Voice changer.. cool xD

Can't wait for the new hi-tech vid! lol

Awesome DIY...
Wonder how the result looks though... I'd say it probably looks a little scary. xD

Well it is pretty cool... but I still don't know the real purpose of this LED. Just to make it look cool? I guess it shines on the outside, eh?

No wonder the newspaper looks so familiar... they are from the straits times.

The led inside the helmet would look cool from the outside view. Look! My helmet eye holes have blue light.

Woooow very cool! The troopers at expo all have voice changers in their helmits. Its so cool.

lol deathknight eyes!

thats great inside its neon lights

sickk asss helmet!!

great idea stickinf LED's in the helmet, but i wouldnt use it too long though. also i think you can create a cavity on the inside of the chest plate and put the ipod there with a plastic window with an opening to access the scroll wheel on the ipod.
