  1. #1

    Default Fiber Optic Cable

    I got some of that side glow cable and man is it cool. here are some photos. I is powered by a 3 watt Lux and it lights up 15 feet great. here are some pics for review

    How bout that sringy Force Lightning LOL

    It has some potential especially for the glow factor.

    Costs out the wazoo. $35 minimum...[:0] Looks decent though over the short distances of a blade.

    tetmatek,
    What are you using to focus as much light into the fiber? I read someplace that you need some sort of special coupler to get proper alignment and stuff.

    it look s very cool and promising.
