Favorite Glow-Poi / Glow Juggling - Montreal Based!

I didn't want to keep wasting glow sticks. I started making some bright glow poi with water bottles and LEDs, but then it's hard to turn them on/off and wastes batteries, etc.

I was looking around to see what are some of the cooler LED products on the market. One of the places that looked really awesome was Flowtoys: [ www.flowtoys.com ]

Flowtoys look amazing, are expensive, and are supposed to break once in a while.

Then I was pointed to a guy who is based in Montreal (St Laurent and Prince Arthur). He was the original, and designed his own light system call the "all-light" where you can program a whole ton of your own patterns, based on your favorite colors and stuff. I ended up buying some all-lights and a couple small-soft juggling balls with blue LEDs in them. I switched the blue LEDs out, put the all-light LEDs in instead. Then I used the blue lights in some handles I made with tubing he was nice enough to give me, and made a hemp net weave to hold the juggling balls to make them into poi. I like the option of having the handles lit up as well as the poi heads.

His site is [ www.lightupandjuggle.com ] and I thought that his prices were very reasonable compared to flowtoys, and his products seem much more durable (and with the juggling balls made into poi, much softer) and he is easily accessible for extra parts. Plus you get to not pay for shipping (and not waste fuel and material for shipping).

If you were at Black Magick, you saw me with them, I had them on strobe-rainbow a lot of the time.

Does anyone else have any favorite glow toy companies, or something cool you made at home?

I'm feeling the strings right now..
