LEDs in bottles of water
Last night I had an empty bottle of Jones Soda on my desk, so I rinsed it out and filled it with cool water. Then I took one of my super bright blue LEDs and suspended it over the mouth of the bottle at full brightness. It turned to look pretty cool, and in the dark the ghetto rigging isn’t really visible! I took some photos then tried a red one and took some more.
Yeah, yeah I know it’s been done before, I didn’t even do it right (the LED is hanging from test clips over an unsealed bottle of water) but I just wanted to see roughly what it looked like, I was killing time. Since then I’ve sketched out an idea for a permanent version of this, might make some nice gifts for geeky friends.
Without further ado, the photos:
