These little led eyes look amazing. I didnt know you could actually see through them lol. I wouldn't fancy having one of those lipo batteries at the back of my head tho. Think I would go with the little battery pack.
@@FranklyBuilt What about using a rescue blanket silver side towards the led side? I used them in the summer to reflect heat in my living room, you can still see through them but the silver reflects a lot of light.
@@NightFuryForever that guy probably has an irrational fear of LIPO batteries. Somehow, the fact that puncturing a LIPO battery will cause a fire has turned into the idea that lithium batteries are ticking time bombs ready to explode at any moment. It's just not true, as long as you don't physically abuse the battery and don't short circuit it nothing bad is going to happen. Anti right to repair companies have also played into this narrative of lithium batteries being an extreme safety risk to justify not letting consumers replace batteries.
I am also doing moonknight. I'm going as mr.night and my bf is going as the other moonknight. Making this all from scratch. Would love to see how yours looks.
Great channel man, I am learning a lot! Thank you! I am going to start building an iron man suit. He has always been my favorite comic hero so i was geeked to see your sick builds! Ill be watching and rewatching these vids, especially the electronics tutorials. Prefer this music btw hehe
Epic...thanks for this Frank. Had just done the eyes in my build and managed to break 1 so was ordering replacements but these will. Be waaaaay better 😊👍🏼👍🏼
back in limited stock. seller has several listings for them but the color availability varies between listings so hunt around. Ordered 6 (2 red, 2 blue, 2 gold) we will see how they work in the Darth Vader Helmet and the AstroMech droids.
Saw on instance of this question, did not see answer. Was planing to use usb battery pack. You mentioned need to drop down from 5v to 3v. Is there an easy way to accomplish this?
I bought from the same shop a few weeks ago and I thought they were flexible, unlucky me I clicked on their listing for the normal plastic ones. just make sure it says bendable on the listing before you buy lol
May I suggest that you choose the right colour for your eyes too. The lense colours are important and can affect your fields of vision, because through my visor colour vision experiments of power armor projects in the fallout 4 video game, light visor colours can definitely compromise this experiment if cosplay creators are using the incorrect type of LED colours for their visors. And another incredible idea is to add alternate light functions for darker environments on your helmets or masks, for alternated light and more effective field of vision effects, that will not block visibility so intensely. Not only can this be an incredibly useful skill in tactical intimidation tactics, but it can also be very useful for simply moving around in the dark during investigations, showing off your amazing costume appearances without blinding yourself over long periods of time and just simply enjoying the unique styles of LED visor appearances that can basically be switched around for different environments of light visibility. But I must say, these lenses look amazing to experiment with!
got an idea can you take those and make a frame that you can make them like pair of sunglasses that you can put on and then just put any mask you want on over the top
Thank you for the positive feedback but what I'm thinking here also is a some kind of a dimmer switch so you can dress the the intensity for normal like three to three volts or you can take and turn the foliage down and keep them on to the point you can adjust them so you can see in any kind of lady and still keep them on in a little dimmer a little brighter you know just somewhere on the costume you can hide the dimmer switch that you can adjust the intensity
Does anyone know where to get a bigger version of these? I'm making a jack o lantern costume for halloween and I wanna use some for the eyes but the eye holes are too big.
Sorry, I may have missed it but do they come with the battery? 😅 Edit: Ordered them for myself through the doobly doo link to see if they did. These lights do *not* come with a battery. What you will need is a CM2302 battery. One of the hearing aid disc looking batteries
I just got green ones for my latex skull full head mask. Curious how to attach them to the inside openings of the eye holes. Maybe styrene frame around eyes held on with e6000? * UPDATE held them in with gorilla tape. Worked fine BUT while trick or treating with my son after sundown I could NOT SEE. it was so bad I had to switch to my spare mask. Even turned off I still couldn't see.
When I was wondering is how you installed them. Especially with the face mask coming up. How did you arrange the wires so you had enough wire and they weren't in the way
Is there somewhere I can get a larger strip of the rubber lenses? I've got a faceplate with one large strip for the eyes and cant find any that would look like they can cover the full length.
I would love to get these. What are the chances finding these that are able to change color? Such as for a mask I want to make, I want it more of an ice-blue, but I want to be able to remotely change it to red in certain situations.
So i had no clue that when you peel off the white cover paper your getting rid of the adhesive that holds the lights on to the plastic. Any fix for this? Really should come with a warning as I thought it was just a protecting cover.
May i know what led color are you using for most of your iron man helmet? thanks, i just began printing my very own mark 85 helmet as I follow your tutorial videos.
Hey man, i have a question. What do i do if glowing eyes are bigger than size those are coming in? Like Omen from valorant for example Edit: Or simply, can you put one next to eachothet and it will look good?
Bro I just got my 3d printer the Neptune 4 max Im thinking about making an iron man helmet. The issue is i live in indonesia and aliexpress no longer ships to Indonesia, If you could send me just one pair of those eyes i would be very grateful tank youuu
I'm from Argentina, this stuff is relly hard to get here, there is literally nobody selling it here, the full cost is AR$ 2040, but the leds only AR$ 500, the rest is for shipping and taxes. But it's worth to have a better helmet at the end

Oooo thank you so much!!
Fantastic! Having flexible LED eyes out of the box is a game-changer indeed. Thanks for sharing!
These are awesome. Looks like they sold out quick! I'm going to keep an eye out for some of these.
I found them on eBay
Eye see what you did there
These little led eyes look amazing. I didnt know you could actually see through them lol. I wouldn't fancy having one of those lipo batteries at the back of my head tho. Think I would go with the little battery pack.
Yep they’re great!
And I don’t use LiPo batteries in the suit just usb battery packs
@@FranklyBuilt What about using a rescue blanket silver side towards the led side? I used them in the summer to reflect heat in my living room, you can still see through them but the silver reflects a lot of light.
new to the game here, what's wrong with LiPo in the helmet?

very cool, are there larger ones, like big enough for a full face plate or mando vison?
I only have a face plate made and I already ordered the led eyes you linked, thank you

Question... Have you tried adding one way glass film to the inside so more of the light is reflected outwards?
I’m going to buy these rn thx frank I can wait for these to be delivered while I figure out ow to replace my thermistor

You can lower them a little to see above the plastic. It won’t be noticeable at night.
Can you try "One way mirror film". sorry..just thought to reduce the glare and reflect it away from your eyes.
This video is very helpful!! Could you make a tutorial on putting a limit switch in the middle like you have? I can’t figure it out

bought some of these lights off ebay and wanted to know if there is any way to control the brightness? thanks! love your content
Can these be made dimmable?
this is a great video! btw what camera you use man? love your channel
Thanks! I have a Sony A6600
Do these come in longer sizes? I ask because I’m looking to add a lightning effect to the sword of a raiden cosplay.
Excellent!
Do they come in a large enough format to fill out a mandalorian visor?
Does anyone know where to get a bigger version of these? I'm making a jack o lantern costume for halloween and I wanna use some for the eyes but the eye holes are too big.
I found one on Etsy that is dubble as thick and has all the colours which you can change

I am doing a dark helmet helmet
Hey Frank what kind of trigger switch and finger touch controller do you use?
Thanks! I might use these for a ncr cosplay later
Nice video. Can I install these in a wool felt fedora hat?
Can anyone say which material he is using I am trying to make Batman suit 😢
Very nice! If the strips are too wide for my project, would I be able to cut them and they'd still work?
Sir did you use ice blue or blue
Sorry, I may have missed it but do they come with the battery? 😅
Edit:
Ordered them for myself through the doobly doo link to see if they did. These lights do *not* come with a battery. What you will need is a CM2302 battery. One of the hearing aid disc looking batteries
What kind of glue should I use to affix these to a plastic helmet? I just used krazy glue and a little got on the lens and ruined them.
This is so cool
I just got green ones for my latex skull full head mask.
Curious how to attach them to the inside openings of the eye holes. Maybe styrene frame around eyes held on with e6000?
* UPDATE
held them in with gorilla tape. Worked fine BUT while trick or treating with my son after sundown I could NOT SEE.
it was so bad I had to switch to my spare mask. Even turned off I still couldn't see.
Hi, I’m very new to electronics and wiring but would you know how to extend the wire for these? Thanks in advance
i wonder if these would work for my vash the stampede arm from trigun stampede.
Very cool find. Do they have a glowing/fading mode feature by any chance?
Hi can you make a tutorial on how to make them flicker?
what magnets do you use for your iron man helmets the ones I have aren’t strong enough
i am new to this and i needed theas eyes true game changer
I have to ask can you cut these to fit if need be?
This is really interesting! I've subbed!
Is it possible to cut these things into another shape?
When I was wondering is how you installed them. Especially with the face mask coming up. How did you arrange the wires so you had enough wire and they weren't in the way
He as some videos on them.
Wrt the silver tape coming off; can't you just use a bit of silver paint (maybe a silver pen) to make the side reflective again?
You can just peel it off and put it back on
From where can k get flexible light
Can you cut them into brand new shapes?
Does the shipping fee go down if you buy them in bulk?
How easy is it to see through this?
Got some of these look good although I thought I bought the flexi one but were solid but worked well anyway
is there another place to get these eyes? i got the other ones and broke one immediately lol
You burned it with 5v or 9v? (My Iron Man works on 5v)
any wireIess versions?
I bought one of these but mine came too dark, do you know if you can improve this without burning?
I'm trying to get a helmet done for my slingshot I know when you try to do a helmet Red Hood with the LED lights
Wow I got one in yellow for shadow weaver
Omg thank you!!!
Where can I find this but with the strips bigger like 7-10 inches ?
No idea. That would be awesome
Is there somewhere I can get a larger strip of the rubber lenses? I've got a faceplate with one large strip for the eyes and cant find any that would look like they can cover the full length.
No idea. Let me know if you do find some haha that would be awesome
Found it! Thanks :)
What is the name type of the trigger switch used to have lights go on and off when face plate closes
Limiter trigger
Do u hot glue them in or plastic weld them in
Is there larger flexible panels that light up that I could use for a mandalorian hemet?
Thanks
The entire visor?? What for? His helmet doesn’t light up?
@@FranklyBuilt correct, this would be something new.
Sorta like Samus
You would have to make something using plexiglass and perforated vinyl and leds maybe
@@FranklyBuilt already done.
Just saw this flexible led and thought of a bigger panel.
Its not like Im the first to think of leds in a mano helmet.
Great update!
I would love to get these. What are the chances finding these that are able to change color?
Such as for a mask I want to make, I want it more of an ice-blue, but I want to be able to remotely change it to red in certain situations.
hey question
do you think light blue or white would be better for the MK2 helmet
Oooo light blue
@@FranklyBuilt thanks I ordered it
anybody got a link for the trigger switches?
Hey there! Loved the video. Someone knows how to make the eyes? I'm not able to buy those in my country sadly...
does that little trigger thingy come with the lights when you order ?
Hey I was wondering if u just used hot glue to attach the eyes onto it? If not then what do u use?
Bro, please make the ace of spades from destiny
Anyplace else to get these
What kind of Magnet is that? I can’t find that magnet in Amazon. All they got is the flat round magnet and not a snap one like you’re using. Thanks
Amazing! What sort of LED and shape are in these? Is it easy to swap the LED for another? Thanks.
They only come in the shape you see currently
@@FranklyBuilt sorry, I mean the type and shape of LED inside.
It comes with it already installed
Ugh. "No Longer Available" on that site. Anyone see another place that sells them??
Search Ebay for: DIY Bendable LED Light Eyes Kits
I love it
that red led can you see freely ?
Will you be using those on all your suits now ?
Maybe
I would love to put these on my bike helmet be great for group rides
hey, just thought i let you know the flexible led's you have in the description is now outdated. they are no longer selling those
So i had no clue that when you peel off the white cover paper your getting rid of the adhesive that holds the lights on to the plastic. Any fix for this? Really should come with a warning as I thought it was just a protecting cover.
I mean they’re $4 electronics from ebay haha 😆 were lucky they come with bags lol
Best✨
May i know what led color are you using for most of your iron man helmet? thanks, i just began printing my very own mark 85 helmet as I follow your tutorial videos.
White
is there a small circle version of it?
Nah it’s not too bad
Hey man, i have a question. What do i do if glowing eyes are bigger than size those are coming in? Like Omen from valorant for example
Edit:
Or simply, can you put one next to eachothet and it will look good?
What’s your intro song?
Woulda been nice to have the link to the tea lights 🤦🏽♂️
MK 85 WITH MK 1 HELMET 😂😂😂✨
Can you make a real iron man helmet that work. If you can so make it
Doesn't this harm your eyes over time
