This Week ive seen some of this little Balls with Colorchanging LEDs for about 3,50USD, also buyed one. They appear to have the correct Size of an Nade.

The Colors are nice, but never seen a Plasma Nade with a Red or Green Color, Blue is also in there, but the Colors switch every Second, not good.

The Problem is that the Colors are controlled by a very little IC and you can not change it to Blue only without solder an SMD Resistor on it, the Power is supplied by 3x LR44 Batteries.

Each Battery contains 1,5V, in the End 4,5V.

Well, thats interessting....not. Thats easy. The Problem: The integrated LEDs are bright, but not so bright like i want it or a Plasma Nade it is.

In that Case i modify this Ball next Week with a very bright LED with about 15.000mcd, thats done in 5min and costs not more than 1-2USD. (I would do it right now, but my LEDs are all gone *gg*)
 
Hey I have seen those before! A friends daughter had them in her room. They would be perfect!! just add a few more leds and bam!

Ok Vrogy, getting a little intense there....

I have seen this type of ball before, somewhere round the Weapons Section....
 
Sry Guys, because of a lot to do at Work i dont came to buy a few LEDs, but i think tomorrow should it be finished!

Where did you get the ball at? what store

I get it at a Electronic Multimedia Store named "Conrad Electronic", dont know if this Store stands in the U.S. too, but its a great Place with great Prices!

Your Wish comes true, i finished the Nade right now!

The LED has about 2500mcd and was sanded at the Top, because the Angle of Radiation comes a lot bigger and lights the Ball smooth up. I soldered an Resistor on the LED, the LED needs 4V and i have 3x LR44 Batteries with each 1,5V.

I edit this Post tonight with a Pic in complete Dark to demonstrate the Brightness of the new LED!

You have to sign up for that site and the smallest order you can make is $25 USD
Thanks for the help
I found this though
http://www.amazon.com/Sylvania-Mosaic-Colo...7789&sr=8-9
one reviewer states that
You can press the button on the bottom to make it morph through the spectrum and also click it to keep any color steady

I'm actually ordering one of these color ball dealies right now. I realized it would be perfect for a new toy of mine as seen in my siggy. XD

Now you just have to paint some parts so it looks like a plasma grenade

That should be no Proplem, where can i find an HD Picture of that Nades?
