After the success of the keyboard belt, i was looking at some old components and decided that a computer fan belt buckle would be amazing! Of late i have been intrigued by florescent and UV colours, so thought that one of those UV fans that you get for the comp cases with clear sides would be great. Unfortunately it proved more difficult to find that i thought. For the moment i have managed to find a clear fan, that has four LEDs (in that amazing blue that i love) that light up when the fan is plugged in.
I realised that I need to put cover plates on the front and back of the fan, in order not to get your self court in in. So i am designing clear perspex covers in Rhino, which use the PC board pattern as the cut outs for air flow. These are some quick drawings from my journal, to show the basic concept.
The fan runs on twelve volts, so I'm going to have to use four of the three volt batteries that i put in the keyboard belt.

Im guessing there are four LED's on the fan? one in each corner? What about putting different colours in each corner, or two red and two blue in oppopsite corners or same side? Could you fix two more around the edge on the centre of the fan? Would three different colours on one fan work? Check it out
