        <title>Flickering blue LED cast into glowing resin obelisk.</title>

        <description>I've cast blue LEDs into glow in the dark resin in the past, buit after a recent video about using photoluminescent pigment in resin, some Patreon channel supporters asked about a video showing the full process. So here it is.  A flickering candle style blue LED embedded into a resin obelisk with less glow pigment than normal to try and get the blue light to penetrate further through the obelisk. The pigment I used was strontium aluminate green glow in the dark pigment and the resin was standard pound-shop / dollar-store two part resin. Subsequent testing showed that a very good effect is achieved with extremely low LED current.  Literally a 10K resistor in series limiting current to much less than 1mA.  Perfect for a wearable ornament in a dark environment. Here are some links to the music I listened to while I was waiting for the resin to set. Sam Sparro - Black and Gold:- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eHuebHTD-lY Pnau - Go Bang:- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OLzQX8OIWhg And the complete acid-trip that was Disney's Spectromagic. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KrV5wP8DfTc This parade was a bit ahead of its time, so the control system was complex with a huge amount of wiring, electroluminescent panels and fibre optics.  Many of the floats and costumes had two complete sets of lights so that it could morph back and forth from being a bright white parade into a very colourful one. The scale and complexity meant that it was very maintenance intensive.  It got retired in 2010 before fading into history.  I'm glad to have been a part of that history. If you enjoy these videos you can help support the channel with a dollar for coffee, cookies and random gadgets for disassembly at:- http://www.bigclive.com/coffee.htm This also keeps the channel independent of YouTube's advertising algorithms allowing it to be a bit more dangerous and naughty.</description>
