Glows in the Dark and Lights it Up!
Features a 2-layer, 3D printed character. The LEDs charge the special glow in the dark filament layer when active, and then you can go from LED to GLOW with a flick of the switch!

Use colored markers, paint, felt and other craft materials to customize your glowie. Then flip your it over and use the included instructions to easily align your LEDs along the component pegs using the conductive tape and battery holder to make your circuits complete!

This kit includes:
  • 1x Glow-in-the-Dark 3D Printed Makey Robot Glowie
  • 2x SMT RGB LEDs
  • 1x 3v Coincell Battery & NEW Holder
  • 1x Conductive e-Tape Strip (6”)
  • 1x Self-Adhesive Pin Back
  • No tools required, they're hackable, customizable and adorable!
  • Each badge is around 3" x 3" (76mm x 76mm)

    This kit is also educational and teaches simple circuits through the wirings of your LEDs. Most of the parts can be re-purposed for other projects too, the battery holder & LEDs are awesome for cosplay or creating other glowing wearables.

    About new battery holder - In order to better protect from younger makers from accidently ingesting small shiny batteries, we have secured the batteries behind a protective case that makes it so the batteries won't slip out and are harder to access for little hands. This new case might require you to slightly alter the build by extending the battery case down to the lower pegs to ensure a flush fit. Please do educate your little makers on proper safety when using and handling batteries.

    Please Note: Small parts, choking hazard. Coloring is for all ages, but we recommend ages 8+ for the electronics, your child's skill levels may vary, we encourage parental supervision and participation!

    SMT = Surface Mount Technology (they are really small)

    RGB = Red / Green / Blue (cycles through colors)
