LED Balloon Floaties

[LibertyPrimeV1]

cant see shit when you release them

[zooto68]

I wonder how many UFO reports this generated :) Good job.

[18kingen]

I Was in A Consert And some One Did That And I Looked At The Sky And Trouhgt It Was An UFO XD But Then After I Saw People Whit It

[UKUrbanMedia]

recycle more! aliens got freaked out big time !

[bbollie]

PEOPLE!!! I REALLY NEED AN ANSWER ON THIS QUESTION REALLY REALLY FAST. IS IT THAT BALLOON COULD SNAP BECAUSEOF THE HEAT OF THE LED???

[cLick1333]

@bbollie LED's are famous for being light sources that don't give off any heat at all. So no , the LED's won't heat up and the baloons won't snap.

[lehmejoun]

@bbollie no,led doesn't release enough heat

[JoeCavy4]

The balloons are seen by real space aliens. The aliens freak out and deploy their dooms day weapon and destroy the Earth.

[bmxstreet6]

Im a yankee in the south, i know if i send 1 or 2 up, the rednecks around me will call the police and say that there ufo s. I want to do this, need to take a trip to radio shak for LEDs.

[bmxstreet6]

How long do the LEDs stay on? like on a button cell battery?

[uberscientist]

@bmxstreet6 sometimes a week, sometimes a little bit less, depends on the current draw of the LED and the quality of the battery.

[enjoifreddy]

@bmxstreet6 Just get A Lithium Battery C 2035 ibelieve but any Cell lithium battery should work.

[optical76]

i wonder if those flashing antennas for old cell phones could be powered by one of these batteries. can't find em anywhere.

[FreeTalkLive]

These extreme "GREEN" tree huggin fags need to die.

[mag31316]

I wonder what would happen if those got into a plane's engine

[Flogo85]

sehr schön, mir kam letztens die idee auch leds in so einem luftballon zu stecken, zur partydekoration... halt mit rgb leds.... aber euer silvesterknallerersatz gefällt mir auch sehr gut ;)

[Sneakylilshit]

awesome :)

[tekzunited]

Dont like balloons @ all, they make the sea filled with rubbish plastic .

Do something creative without messing up the envirement :P

[MIAMIBLONDGUY]

[fire11111111111]

[AICorp]

Just leaving them on the ceiling would be great lighting for a party

[robert1231231]

[chunksapat]

NOOOOOO!!!! u stole my idea! i got the blueprints all written out on my paper! :(

[animalperson999]

sorry, you can already buy them online at several distributors.

[skylinevspec000]

I did that at my GF's party we had heaps of them with flashing LED's inside, it was great, the kids started beating them so we let them go the sky was light with floaties

[younlink]

goog idea use a led that is the manifetation of the energi in form of ligth and warm into a ballon full of helium, a material high inflamable jajajajaja

[BriansVideoHobby]

@younlink

Helium isn't flammable.

[stupidplants]

@younlink LEDs dont emit any heat? thats kinda the point of it? its just a diode...

[hammas74]

1-21-2008 news

man get killed by LED with paterey xD

[codkiller78]

Name of song?

[hammas74]

99 baloons

[scarecrone]

wooow....you must do this again, and invite me! i'll finally be able to see the stars for once. :)

[panmik]

OMG! HOW DID THE PROPOSAL WENT?!? :D

[Bluesage2009]

GUYS< where did you get the HELIUM INFLATER?

This appeals to me so much!.

PLEASE RESPOND... I have to get this arranged for a proposal THIS NY!!

[standauffish]

DOH

Party supply store

Rent a big tank or buy a disposable one use canister

[maulerrw]

what age are you living in?? no batteries have mercury in them anymore.

the latex is biodegradable and the batteries and led will rust away. the lithium in the cell will react with oxygen in the air/water and form harmless compounds.

ok im not even going to try and guess the odds of a balloon landing in a whales blow hole.. what are you thinking??!??

[spentfromnz]

Do you have any idea how large a whale's blowhole is? They're typically 8-10 inches, way to large to be blocked by a piece of rubber from a ballon.

[Rogergon010010]

the palstic from balloons land in whales blow holes and cause them to die!

[stupidplants]

@Rogergon010010

ballons arent plastic

[juankrloz12]

Buenos Días, mepodría por favor informar si ustedes venden la luz para introducir el globo por favor espero una respuesta

[igloo132]

i wounlder if a plane crashed cause of that...

Tight as hell anyway!

[GreatAuntFanny]

Wow so cool!

[bamboo555]

Where did you buy your LEDs. Did you put them together(battery&light) yourself, and if so how'd you do it?

[stupidplants]

@bamboo555 they are LED Throwies. you make em led, light, and neyodium magnet

[Xxero0]

when those balloons pop, its gonna be raining LED lights.... A MIRACLE!!!

[windoes98se]

cool idea , but how much do u pay for each led , do u buy them in assorted packs ?, or do u buy then individually , wair do you buy them from

[ciakyjones]

If you used them outside, they will eventually fall down to earth and hit something .... forget about the fish and the mercury and cover you own head....

[dotat]

Cool

[dtweaponx]

What is the name of this song?

[uberscientist]

80's-Neena 99 Red Baloons.mp3

[cephal0p0d]

Been doing this since July '07 at Endif gigs, starting with the Reverence festival in Madison, WI.

Battery. Tape. LED. Stuffed into a balloon, filled with helium, tied off. Fill a couple of plastic garbage bags with them, release at the start of the set. They flicker when they get near the speakers.

Kids like to bust em open and take the throwies once the helium stops working..

Cool to see so many at once, and free to fly as they will though.

=]

[latribe]

This should not be done outside. Apart from anything else, the button cell batteries contain mercury and are poisonous to the environment and in any event, how would you like one stuck in your throat if you were a sea creature?

[bhankiii]

I've seen luminescence made from Mountain Dew, baking soda and peroxide. Maybe that would be a more eco-friendly display. Also, I read that we are headed towards depleting our (non-renewable) supply of helium.

[ron808]

helium is a natural resource and therefore would be gone right before our eyes or our great grandkids eyes.

that's a very old news about helium. the supply is getting weaker so suppliers have to hike the prices.

[stupidplants]

@ron808 no helium is ever used up though? its just put back into the atmosphere where it started?

[hacksign23]

@ron808 Actually, helium is made in laboratorys using the alpha radiation process. an alpha decay gives off helium nuclei! So really, lack of helium isn't much of a problem.

[stupidplants]

@bhankiii thats fake just so ya know...

[aerodynamic1]

Did something like that with green glowsticks once. I tied them loosely together with about 10 foot lengths of thread. I think I sent up 4 or 5 larger balloons altogether. The thread made them sort of swirl around each other slowly but they always stayed together. Looked really eerie and quite cool. I set the helium level just enough so they would drift more laterally than vertically.
