SEE LAST POST BY ME for great update!
I am using cell phone power banks for powering the LEDS!







(Click on photo to see video)


I used a micro controller to program an integrated circuit and then wired up 25 light emitting diodes.
My first attempt to add SMT LEDs to a hat :) I did unplug the I.C. from the hat and did some reprograming to improve some light patterns. I added more EYE led on times.
Let me know what you think of my bedazzled SEATTLE SEAHAWK HAT!
Thanks!
Roger <((((><

LOL, pretty cool.

Bought my nephew a handmade LED Hawks logo he has on his wall.
Multiple colors and functions. LED Technology is pretty cool.

Can I make a recommendation???

Ok thanks....:p

Put it on a safety helmet....it would sell as they are and came about as we had them first.

Great idea Bassmaster.

That is super. Thanks for sharing.

You would make one hell of a drag queen. I actually do mean that as a compliment.

Be careful on rainy game days or you'll be bedazzled too.

Looks awesome though.

The I.C. is an Atmega328pu it is used on the Uno Arduino micro control. $1.50ceach
I can wire up a hat at cost ($10) but you would need to send me a hat. Do to the copy right on the hats. I can't resell the Seahawks hats.

As someone mentioned a Seahawks sign to post in the office or wall would be awesome. I would happily purchase something like that I can put on the wall at home or in the office!!

Arduinos are great!!! If you know basic coding( its in C) and basic electronics you can do wonders.

Quick question. Have you tried using a ATTINY84 or you need more i/o pins?

I have 40 Attiny85 ICs ready for projects. I'm working on a small OLED weather station! I picked up programing this xmas :) And yes I needed MORE pins (18 pins x two LEDs per pin) 36 total.
