Don't you mean Sean? ;-)

OH and Sean, by the way.

In this pic :

What do the switches operate? You mighta said it and I missed it...

Do they operate the LED's or the fans or both?? :mrgreen:

 

[Sean Bradley]

The switch on the right side operates the LED's, and the one on the left operates the fan.

 

[blinkava44]

sean what did you use to cover the LED's ?

 

[Sean Bradley]

I didn't like any of the LED mounts or covers that I have seen because they weren't accurate enough, so I came up with my own method. I found these little round glass lenses, like a marble but only smaller... they're halway imbedded in the helmet and siliconed in place. The LED's are then mounted behind the clear glass lenses... it actually spreads the beam a bit...

gotcha, you dont happen to have a picture of the glass lenses do you?? cuz ive been lookin for somethin to cover the LED's on my helmet when i put em in

 

[Sean Bradley]

Can do. I hunted through every auto and craft store in my town trying to find something just the right diameter...

I'll take a couple pics and send them to you tonight.

 

[TheBlue]

Holy Crap.

Sean, your armor freaking rules :rock: !!!

I gotta start saving up $ for one of those things...

 

[SPARTAN430]

Yes, I am very impressed Sean, I knew I could count on you !

 

[Damien]

not to offend, but the red ones look a tinsy bit pink

 

[TheBlue]

That's the camera. It makes it look pink, when it's acutally red.

 

[Redsleighdown]

Looks nice in Red too! ;-)

You mean ON Red right? Gimme a call sometime, I'm very interested in these masterpieces.

 

[Sean Bradley]

Doesn't it suck how the color red rarely gets captured correctly on camera

True that. They're mettalic cherry red, but you wouldn't know it from the photos... I'll have to try again in natural sunlight.

:roll:

Red, I got your helmet man... you just let me know when you want it. ;-)
