EL Panel Bike Turn Signal Armbands
Instructables user CTY1995 writes:
This project will automatically turn on an EL panel with a mercury tilt switch. By extending your arm or raising it slightly, the mercury will complete the circuit, resulting in the EL panel to light up brightly whether solid or blinking. Give this project a try, and you’ll be amazed.
