In this review, we present to your attention an interesting idea for improving ordinary roller skates, on which, if desired, you can add a beautiful highlight that will allow you to ride in the dark.
We recommend starting with watching the author’s video
We will need:
- a segment of the LED strip;
- two boxes for rechargeable batteries;
- two small switches;
- two 9-volt crown batteries;
- a piece of Velcro;
- wires;
- thread with a needle;
- roller skates themselves.
First of all, you need to take care of attaching the battery boxes to the leg. To do this, you can use a soft belt, which can be purchased on the market. Sew boxes to the belt.
Velcro fasten around the edges so that you can put on and remove the battery holders without any problems.
Now glue the LED strip over the wheels of the roller skates. According to the author of the idea, for better fixation, you can additionally glue pieces of LED strip with superglue.
We take two pieces of wire and use them to connect the switches to the battery boxes. The switches themselves can be glued to the side of the boxes.
We measure the length of the wires necessary to connect the LED strip to the boxes.
We solder all the wires together.
As an additional insulation, and also so that the wires do not look too terrible, they can be removed in heat shrink, resulting in a beautiful black wire.
Illuminated inline skates are ready.
