Default Introduction: Fire Tips

AKA- the match stick as Dave calls it

You actually have to imagine the tip moving.... it's really neat in motion . I know it looks orange.... it's bloody red. I'll never get the hang of this camera.....

No, never had any problems...... just don't like throwing things out there until it gets a chance to burn on my "voltage rail from hell" (14.8v unregulated power supply with tons of voltage spikes and arcs ) for a few weeks/month(s) to see if it takes the heat. So far so good.

Hay olt i got a question. So lets say i send in my needles to get them redone in red. Once i try reinstalling the needles, wont the moving of the needles cause them to become uncalibrated?

Did you put a SMD led at the tip in place of the stock ones? How hard would it be to replace the stock SMD's with ones of different color?
