Aaron’s DIY LED Robot – Glowbot

Aaron Wasserman, one of our Customer Service Reps was inspired by all of our accesories to create how own light up Optimus Prime but decided to go in another direction and ended up with an LED Robot he named Glowbot.

Aaron says, “The Glowbot gets its name from the fact that its body is built around two separate RGB LED fixtures, each with its own RGB Color Controller. The torso is built around a Puck Light and the Head is built around a short piece of RGB Strip Light. These controllers allow me to control the color of the Glowbot’s torso and eyes independently.”
