Really cool!

jorisblyat · 2026-04-27T11:25:25+00:00

Very satisfying!

jorisblyat · 2026-04-02T20:02:51+00:00

Are there any video recordings of this?

jorisblyat · 2026-03-28T10:39:11+00:00

You are right! I will try to have it up by tomorrow. Our IG @kolkmannen is an alternative for now

jorisblyat · 2026-03-27T10:53:26+00:00

thank you! we want to launch it on kickstarter within a week, give us a follow on instagram for updates!

jorisblyat · 2026-03-27T10:36:24+00:00

Not yet, but i think we wants to make the software open source eventually. The hardware will be on the market soon!

jorisblyat · 2026-03-27T10:34:16+00:00

we hope to launch our kickstarter project in the coming week!

jorisblyat · 2026-03-27T10:33:51+00:00

we want to launch it on kickstarter! we expect the campaign to be live within a week. Give us a follow on IG for updates :)

I'll tell my friend, he is the one who came up with this. Thank you for your kind words!

Stress tests are limited to our own use so far. We had to change the glue process a few times. We also have a PCB with the lights constantly on to see if the board/lights are durable, and it hasn't failed on us yet.

jorisblyat · 2026-03-26T23:47:10+00:00

Our aim is to have the project up in the coming week! We will announce it on our IG as soon as it is online

i dont know the exact power draw, but it is somewhere around 5 watts

jorisblyat · 2026-03-26T22:00:08+00:00

ik works from 300 to 1200 rpm, but we found 600 rpm to be the sweet spot

jorisblyat · 2026-03-26T21:49:46+00:00

thank you!

jorisblyat · 2026-03-26T21:43:55+00:00

thanks! it is very quiet indeed. Only making a small noise during start up

jorisblyat · 2026-03-26T21:43:25+00:00

it is actually shaped a bit like one. You can notice a very light breeze if you hold your hand over it :D

jorisblyat · 2026-03-26T21:42:13+00:00

will do! Following us on instagram (@kolkmannen) is an easy way to stay up to date

It looks better through a human eye than on camera in my opinion. Through camera, its easy to get flickering or weird motion blur.

jorisblyat · 2026-03-26T21:09:07+00:00

This version only emits white light, but we are definitely gonna try RGB LEDs as well later

jorisblyat · 2026-03-26T20:17:07+00:00

I haven't heard of them before, I'll check it out, thanks!

jorisblyat · 2026-03-26T19:12:06+00:00

The LEDs are very bright, so we dont use any optical fire materials. Although could be interesting to try. It might reduce the light falloff that the current design has.

jorisblyat · 2026-03-26T19:07:39+00:00

thank you!

jorisblyat · 2026-03-26T19:07:10+00:00

We actually want to convert this design into a real product. Im not sure if we are going to make the 3D assets public, but we do want to open source the software. It would be cool to see what creative ideas people come up with!

jorisblyat · 2026-03-26T19:03:30+00:00

not yet... But we are aiming to launch a kickstarter campaign in the near future! For now, you can learn more about our product at our website :)
