Hi all! Cornflakes here, I wanna share a quick update on what’s new with the progress on Ravelights Gen 2.

We’ve been going very hard, getting things ready so we can share some really cool LED tech with you, and the world. The enthusiasm y'all have for us has been so rewarding and motivating, you even just being here genuinely means a lot to us.

The update:

Gen 2 Ravelights use custom, dedicated hardware that we’ve kinda over engineered, mostly for fun and we were bored, but also because it allows us to do some really cool new stuff that does not really exist yet in this capacity.

We just sent our final prototype hardware to be built. We made a lot of improvements this round and fixed all the weird bugs from version 1 that you might be familiar with lol. We think the hardware is going to be incredibly stable and robust this time.

We decided to do circuit boards in purple! It costs a bit more to make them purple, but honestly we think it will look pretty cool, so worth it haha. You can look through the vents on your Ravelights and see purple circuit boards, which is pretty neat.

Designing everything ourselves has been really exciting. It gives us unlimited freedom and makes it easy to add features you all keep requesting.

A couple things we are building:

-Software Updates: Your Ravelights will get more features, even after you bought them. Like, if we figure out how to make your battery last longer or create new modes, we’ll send you those upgrades for free.
-Tons of easter eggs hidden around the UI, like games. HEY - got any games on your Ravelight? Actually, yes, I do XD
-Got more than one Ravelight? They will sync and integrate with each other
-Very smart battery management software
-And a ton more I can’t list right now.

That's all for now! Thanks for reading! Chat more soon ❤️

Ravelights have wall mounts so you can hang them up when you’re back from con

Been playing around with mounting and found some very cool options. More to come soon!

We decided we are going to offer mounting kits for Ravelights, so you can take them on and off walls super easily. So when you aren't at a con, you can make them part of your room lighting.

Half assembled Ravelights make great fidget toys! 🔊

After months and months of work, we have the first finished Ravelight V2! Serial 00001!

Thank you for being here ❤️ it means so much. More info to come soon!

We’re almost ready to officially announce Ravelights in RGB!

For those of you who pre ordered, we will reach out soon.

Hello, Cornflakes here. Sitting in a metal tube (airplane) thinking, and wanted to share some thoughts just for fun.

Realized that my friends and I spent literal years on these things, and now finally it’s time to share them with the world and holy, it’s the scariest thing ever.

So many questions. What if they don’t work? What if nobody cares? What if *insert bad thing here* happens?

We talk about it a lot. So we’ve decided to stop overthinking and just full send Ravelights into the world and just see what happens.

With that, I just wanted to say thank you for being here and showing us your support. Truly.

I’m really excited to show you what we’ve been working on, and get our nerdy little project into hands to play with. We think they are really cool, and we hope you do too.

Our Kickstarter is planned for Oct 29, hopefully we’ll see you there. ❤️

You can stay tuned on our twitter, telegram or newsletter. Links are all here.

Consider sharing this channel with a friend :)

New Ravelights are harness-able, tug-able and leash-able.

They are strong and you can tie up your friends ❤️

Nice tail

Pretty lights for pretty dogs ❤️

With Ravelights, you can create pairing groups, so you can sync your paw Ravelights to your wall mounted Ravelights.

Save the date! Exclusive early bird launch prices on Kickstarter on October 29.

A quick and dirty demo of the Ravelights multi layered music reaction mode.

It uses both spectrum and decibel detection with a cocktail of custom math and processing, which took us a few years to get right. It still has some tuning to go, but once it’s finished, it will be a one of a kind.

In V2, we upgraded the CPU in the circuit board for the Ravelights. We now use two cores, one to process live data from the microphone, and the other one to manage and interpret it. The V2 Ravelight CPU is about 500 times faster than V1 lol. We also have a lot more ram in this chip, which lets us store lots of audio data in something called a ring buffer, so the Ravelight is able to calibrate itself to loud and quiet environments on it’s own, pretty quickly. So it can respond to both whispering and a loud rave the same way.

We’ll share a blog post in the future that goes in depth into the engineering and math behind it, just for fun.

Getting ready to film our Kickstarter video very soon! Been working on it for a few months with some very smart people. It’s going to be more of a short story and there will be furries in it, in mainstream Kickstarter.

A bit nervous for that but hey, let’s see what happens. I’ll post some behind the scenes when we get there!

Ravelights have mounts that you can safely use on hotel walls, for when you aren't wearing them.
