Earrings are back in stock! (They have been for a while, but now with a proper announcement). https://lectronz.com/products/earring-ring-rgb36v2 And also... they now support sending data via audio! Still experimental, but it seems to work well enough. You can program a pattern in a web browser, and when it looks good enough in the simulator you can send the pattern (which is actually a special binary executable) directly to the earring via sound. The program will then be picked up by the earrin...

Today is Transgender Day of Visibility, so let me use that day to tell the world that I&#39;m trans. I haven&#39;t exactly been hiding it but didn&#39;t explicitly make a post about it yet. Anyway, pronouns she/her, and using Maaike as a name but Ayke is also fine. #TdoV #trans #blackthorn #blossom

I&#39;m at EasterHegg! If you want to get these LED earrings, just ask me when you see me walking around :D it&#39;s cheaper this way than getting them online, and you&#39;ll get a pair of batteries with them for free. I&#39;m also working on a newer version with more patterns and a microphone (audio reactive patterns!), but it&#39;s not finished yet and will be a bit more expensive. So you can wait for that if you want. The video has somewhat weird colors, it&#39;s har...

For the next batch of earrings, I plan on adding a bunch more pride flags to the earrings. Any suggestions? I already have the rainbow flag and the trans flag. Note that because these are LEDs, the colors black and gray are difficult to represent so for example the ace flag sadly won&#39;t work well. #diy_electronics #lgbtq #jewelry

Would people be interested in titanium earring hooks for the LED earrings I make? They are hypoallergenic, even more so than silver. Unfortunately they&#39;re hard to source with expensive shipping so I&#39;m gauging interest first. The price would be the same as the other earring hooks (silver, clip-on, etc) - titanium isn&#39;t actually expensive, just really hard to get from reliable suppliers. #jewelry

LED earrings are back in stock! It took a bit longer than expected due to Lunar New Year, but I finally received the PCBs today. https://lectronz.com/products/erring-ring-rgb36 Because I'm doing this as a company now, there are a few changes: * VAT is charged in the EU. * Shipping costs are much lower. * More payment methods are accepted, including a few local ones. * Shipping to the US got re-enabled, with added tariff and handling fees paid during checkout. #jewelry #diy_electronics #DI...
