Daddy did some serious work today...took me about four hours designing, laying it out, soldering, etc. It's a total of 16 leds in the chest piece and eight in the hand pieces all running on a 9 volt battery. I'm really proud of this and my kid was in hysterics when he saw it all...btw, shit is BRIGHT!
The costume which was store bought ($10!) and altered by mommy:
Chest piece back before being siliconed and adding another piece to protect him from getting poked:
Front lit up:
This is in my completely dark garage and I'm on the other side taking the pic (this is only the chest piece, not the hand pieces):
All the pieces together while the silicone dries:
The chest piece in the costume...I'm amazed at how well my wife lined everything up:
She's working on the gloves for his hand pieces now so I'll add pics later.
My kid IS Iron Man!
