Step 4Insert LEDs
Check LEDS
Before inserting...check each LED to make sure it's working! I quickly checked mine with my breadboard + Arduino.
Insert
My LEDs came from Ebay. You can get packs of 100 super bright LEDs for a few bucks. My sneakers each needed 35 LEDs, so 1 pack was plenty for one pair of sneaks.
Poke each LED through the holes you just made. I chose to orient them so that the negative (shorter lead) was on the top when holding the velcro strip vertical. Insert enough LEDs to wrap around the entire shoe (remember you have some extra velcro on the end).
Bend
Once all the LEDs are in, bend the negative leads to the left, flat against the fuzzy stuff.
