What? LED coat can also DIY?

Lei Feng Wang Lidong in Shenzhen have a feeling of summer, but it is undeniable that winter is getting closer and closer to us, need to add clothes. That there is no way, let us wear a ball, but still keep full of force? Make a luminous LED lighting jacket seems good, not only can become the brightest stars in the night sky, but also warm.

For the transformation of the old coat of the best point (not distressed), thin point, a little more. Coat the best turn a face, so that the purse is hidden inside, because the back of the pocket to be installed in the battery. In order to avoid the light source is absorbed by the dark color of the coat, an aluminum reflective material can be used to sew into the coat.

In this tutorial, the LED lamp is made up of 27 lights, each of which has 20 LED bulbs. Each lamp string is run with 2 AA batteries, so the first thing is to put the battery holder in the pocket, and then use the tape to the holder and aluminum reflective material on the LED lamp uniform adhesion. If you want the coat looks better, must find a way to spread the LED light spot, such as using a sufficiently thin cotton pad, make the most of the light is transmitted to the outside, the light cotton pad thickness can also spread. Because the cotton is not easy to protect, but also with a transparent plastic sheet covering the entire jacket.
