That's a fantastic idea! Nice craftsmanship too. May I ask where you got the LEDs and the pack?

Cheers,

Andy

Those are nice! I too want to know where you bought the LEDs and how are they powered I am guessing through a battery but once it's out how do you replace it. Are those two pictures of the same collar or ?

You should be able to get those parts (LED's and battery pack) from mouser.com...

e.g. http://www.mouser.com/_/N-8usfj

They also have lots of different color LED's...gives me an idea...I might have to develop my idea on kickstarter or something...:)

Thanks.

The pictures are two of the same collar.

They are automotive LED strips bought two in a package at Walmart and powered by a 9 volt battery.

The cover slides off the battery box for battery replacement.

Great idea, solid design and construction. Thanks for sharing and the inspiration, I bet you end up selling a bunch of those. I went to super zoo earlier this year and there were a few manufacturers with LED collars, but none as nice as what you posted.

Thank you;

The only real problem I have is with the battery box.

The switch is on the bottom of the box and has to be relocated to the end.

The top slides off to replace the battery so why they would put the switch on the bottom is beyond me.
