"So happy I found this thread because I just placed an 80 dollar order this morning. I'm going to get some cheap tape in town today for a practice hoop so I can get the hang of taping."

I'm just interested to see how many of you have ordered from Identi-tape and how reliable they are. I am about to put in a pretty large order, and their site seems to be a bit glitchy. Has anyone had…

So, I just made my first hoop ever. I learned from a YouTube video, and it looked like the easiest thing in the world. I bought 3/4" 160 PSI irrigation tubing in a 100' coil, cut it to make a 40"…

I usually order from a mix of GoodBuyGuys and IdentiTape. But I am wondering, (because I don't have time to wait on shipping), are there any stores in KC that I can go to to buy good quality vinyl and mirror? I'd rather spend time a couple of hours driving and shopping than wait for tape to arrive via mail…See More
beth piver replied to the discussion 'Where to find LED Hoop supplies/Tutorial Vids'"thanks aaron! ive never understood about the resistor watts, so thanks for clearing this up!"
Aaron Groom replied to the discussion 'Where to find LED Hoop supplies/Tutorial Vids'"For the most part, 1/8 W are fine. Not to get too technical, but here is how Watts (Power) is calculated:
Power(W) = Voltage(V) x Current(A).
If you take the voltage that's going across the resistor x current (the same as the LED…"
beth piver replied to the discussion 'Where to find LED Hoop supplies/Tutorial Vids'"thanks mike, i really am totally thankful to you, so im hoping that i can help hoopers find your site.

prodmod replied to the discussion 'Where to find LED Hoop supplies/Tutorial Vids'"Hi Beth
I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for the kind words and for linking to my site on your tutorial. Your tutorial rocks and I am sure is very helpful to a lot of people. its great to have a quick view of alternate methods of making…"
Rhonda J. replied to the discussion 'Where to find LED Hoop supplies/Tutorial Vids'"I'm wondering if anyone knows where to find a true purple led and not the uv ones."
beth piver replied to the discussion 'Where to find LED Hoop supplies/Tutorial Vids'"sorry kimani! time got away from me, and i just kept forgetting to look to see what i used!
ok, so for leds like reds, oranges & yellow (with the 2nd battery set up on my hoop-trix.com page) i used…"
ibewbro replied to the discussion 'Where to find LED Hoop supplies/Tutorial Vids'"ledkid recommends a maximum forward current of 40ma and max forward voltage of 4.5v for each led. I just used the same values for each led at 40 ma."
beth piver replied to the discussion 'Where to find LED Hoop supplies/Tutorial Vids'"hmmmm, i dont know a whole lot about the specifics of resistors.
let me check to see what ive been using, ill try and get back to you later on today...."
beth piver replied to the discussion 'Where to find LED Hoop supplies/Tutorial Vids'"hi heike!!!!
my pleasure, as always!!
let me know if you have any questions."
Heike replied to the discussion 'Where to find LED Hoop supplies/Tutorial Vids'"Just see that you finished it!! THANK YOU BETH!!"
Heike replied to the discussion 'Where to find LED Hoop supplies/Tutorial Vids'"Oh yes, Beth - please do so!! I really would like to make my first LED hoop - but it seems to be so complicated for me - I got at least the Polypro tubing - but I need all what is left for a lovely LED hoop ;-) Cannot wait for your tutorial!"
kimani l♥vs replied to the discussion 'Where to find LED Hoop supplies/Tutorial Vids'"does the 1/4W and 1/8 W matter on the resistors? i have ordered about 4-6 different resistor values, i keep thinking i ordered the wrong ones (and they all are coming from hong kong) :)"
beth piver replied to the discussion 'Where to find LED Hoop supplies/Tutorial Vids'"glad to be of help, splynk!
actually, i cant take the credit---if i remember correctly, mike from prodmod suggested that to me when i was making my first hoop too!
good luck!"
