Diabolo light kits (Ev. 4, Vega, Diabglo...) DANGER

[Matt_]

it will work perfectly fine, but since the white finesse is opaque it will shine through really faintly (as opposed to lighting up the cups completely like the translucent colors do).

if you want the "full" experience (aka both cups that look lit up and such) then dont use blue or white G2s

Many questions at once!

Does anybody use the Evol. Kit 4Rainbow with recharger?
How long should i recharge them - till the indicators stops blinking at all?
Is it better to let them run out of batt. before reloading them?
is it normal that the red LEDs last longest! how long can you play with full brightness?

I'm thinking of changing to the normal Evol. Kit 4(without colorchange), does any body know which color is th brightest and how long the akkus will last? I got 2 finesse diabs yellow/orange mixed - are the finesse moon more translucent?
are there any handsticks with leds?

thanks,
peter

well i have the red ones....they dont seem to last that long, actually. less than an hour i'd say, probably way less. i always charge them until the light is solid, i think that means they are done. i start charging them when the light starts getting dim...i really dont want to "wear them down", because the dim(mer) light isnt very pleasant to watch

My red lights last about 45 minutes. Its kinda crap really!!!

So anyways I bought 2 Finesse moon diabs with a blue kit and green kit and they look amazing!!!!!!!  Ultimate light diabolo i reckon. The green and blue kits also last for about 3hours worth of light which is ace too.

[Matt_]

wow, so the red lights are battery suckers? interesting.

[OLOBAID]

I got 2 rainbow colorchange kits on mine and they really look superb, but only for 20 minutes, then the blue and the green light becomes weak very fast. The red remains about 1 hour.
The leds are colorchanging, they are not only 3 different colored leds -
so when the bat is low, in the changing interval the red ligth remains and when blue or green should be lit, the diabs are nearly dark  - really sucks!
I dont know if the 3 akkus are working together or one for each led, do you? gonna swap bats, then i'll know.

think i'll get me some not colorchanging kits too...
thanks for information

yeh my multi coloured kit dosn't last as long as my red and yellow kit. I think they are finished charging when the lights stop blinking

[eggy900]

Then may I point out that reading the thread before you post is usually a LOT quicker than waiting for someone to reply to a question that has already been coverered.  The answer you seek has been discussed here several times - there are even pictres of a blue finesse / blue light kit!!

[OLOBAID]

Is the Finesse Moon translucent or not? Need to know because i want to order a pair of them soon! If yes, how much light comes through, are they comparable to the yellow ones?
There is a G2 version of the Finesse Moon, or not?
Is there anything else i need to know about moons together with Evo4?
Thanks

[OLOBAID]

I forgot...  
Evolution Kit 4...
If the blue is the brightest, which color would make the second place?
For me red seems to be the looser in brightness things!

The moon ones are translucent, possibly not as much as the yellow but I haven't much experience of them. We use moon g2's with blue lights in our light shows at work and they look very nice, I think there might be a bit of a UV effect thgere. Moon and green is sypposed to be a nice combo but I havent seen it.

[Paul]

I'll sort out a picture of my two moon Finesse with my blue and green lights in so everyone can see how cool they actually are!!!

[Paul]

Here we go as said. Sorry bout the quality. Had to be really quick before my camera batteries died!

The batteries are actually dying on the blue and it is not as bright as it would normally be but they still look mint.

Hope this helps everyones questions about moon finesse being translucent and if they work well.

[OLOBAID]

Thanks!!!
That was i wanted to know! As i want to stay away from the poppy colors(cups), the Moon is the only choice. I had the fear that its like the white - opaque!
Im tendig between 2 blue ledkits or 1blue 1green. Think i'm going to mix up blue/green so i can decide which color/side the audience will see!
I hope i'll finally get the start with 3 ](*,) but its like runnig up against a wall!
Thanks again, people!
You helped me a lot

[Paul]

no probs. Anythin I can do glad to help

This week I found some rainbow LEDs for sale and decided to mod my finesse light kits. They look AWESOME! Each LED has its own timer to fade through 7 colours so while they'll start off in phase, they go out of phase after a while producing multi coloured pattens that look crazy.
have a look at:

The LEDs were about £1 each off ebay and well worth it, though i dont know how much rainbow kits are normally in england (if you can get them).
all i can say is mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[fredo]

WOW That looks awesome!  Very cool!
