Adding fans, lights, and other gadgets to a suit.

Hi, I haven't posted in a while, but wanted to get some feedback on my recent side project.

Last year I finished my suit head/partial project. Since then, I've gotten a bunch of really positive feedback from people when they see the LED lights and fans that I installed in my suit head. I got the chance to suit at a couple dance events, and people really loved the strobing effect I did with the eye LEDs.

This got me thinking that other people might like to have something like this, in kit form, that they can easily install in their own costume projects. I've started building a building an insanely improved version of my first fan/LED control board, and wanted to get some feedback from people to see if I should consider releasing a kit that people can buy. I'm mainly asking, because it seems like a shame to spend time working on only ONE of these things. :D

Anyway, I made up a diagram and a draft Indiegogo campaign describing what I'm working on. I wanted to share the idea here before I put too much time in to this. My hope is that some costume builders here can comment with their feedback, questions, ideas, concerns, etc. I'm still working on some important features that aren't mentioned here, like the battery pack and a robust cabling system. I'll be updating that page as I get ready to launch my campaign. Cheers!
