DIY LED Motorcycle Helmet

Light up your ride with the LED Motorcycle Helmet. Instead of buying expensive LED kits to attach to your helmet and only get one color, use SparkFun parts to DIY with addressable LEDs.

Great! Looks really bright! It would be really good for night visibility!

[@BestUnderPressure]

Now you can look like Dynamo from "The Running Man"

That was an excellent cut from day to night. Shout out to the editor. So smooth. Nice build too! Thanks for the video! (saw the heart, thanks! Had to edit my spelling. Typed "shout" wrong. Lol.) Eh, since it's edited, a content idea for yall. You could do an updated version of this with electroluminescent films. Currently researching how to do the same, and since yall are experts I'd love to see what components and whatnot are best. (that said, still gonna do my own research and figure it out. Probably incorporating some of how yall did this one) dug through your archive a minute ago to. Super helpful content through and through doe a Newby diy "hacker" or whatever the colloquial term is now adays! Subbed

Jus perfect video abaut an amazing idea!

[@akblast-tamil-yt7727]

HI I am from India.i want to do it in my helmet.in low cost .I didn't find the chipset Qduino mini so pls suggest some other chip to use it..

[@sbeal1089]

Awesome idea! Love the different style of the video.

[@Hai.tinh.583]

Nice. Is it waterproof?

[@knucklecorn]

This was a way better video than your usual content. Make Cassy Grace do all your videos.

[@overscoreSX]

Are you actually allowed to drive at night with the extra lights shining off your car/motorcycle?

[@AbnormalWrench]

If it is considered "distracting", no. I think this would definitely fall within that category.

[@jasonlight1670]

Depends on the state.

[@chewdock88]

yes

[@ekrem06]

Which battery did you use? Is it 12v or else?

[@sebastienvayrette-gavard2662]

[@mubeenakabeer6850]

[@egomaniac7230]

OMG you're so cool! Subbed!

[@jasonlight1670]

[@BlackVentions]

That battery will not light up that helmet for long at all.

[@Aura9B]

[@andrisdinero6258]

Hi.It is an awsome thing you've made there.what did you use to power youre led lights and is it chargable?

[@sparkfun]

Yes I used a LiPo Battery (www.sparkfun.com/products/13813) and Charger (www.sparkfun.com/products/10217)

[@NitroTheHusky]

@@sparkfun Any chance you could provide the code for the Arduino and a more in-depth guide? I'm very interested in re-creating this.

[@benjamincs1]

All that heat around the helmet shell. Not sure I'd want to wear it after that!

[@Tino5135]

should be called Rainbow Spark!

[@chewdock88]

I like it. If you was in New you I would ask you to help me and for all the stupid comments don't know what they talking about

[@davidlovell7724]

Can't watch it is the tacky music that is putting me off sorry

[@Rawman_56]

[@BTChanOSRS]

Policeman: *stops you* Neons are ilegal on motorbikes! Me: *show off my tunned boots with neons*

[@ramananrajamani1722]

[@BTChanOSRS]

@@ramananrajamani1722 it was a joke, I wouldn't wear that lul

[@FedEx1k]

Why oh why are these videos done with this stupid music.

[@382946rthu]
