I just left home depot, I'm litterally still in the parking lot. They are selling these for $15. All halloween decorations are 50% off right now. There were at least a dozen on the shelf. I grabbed two and figured someone has a video on how to repurpose them, which is how I found this guide. Thanks for making my buy worth it.
Yea cool I was looking online and yes a huge sale going on. I just bought the Victorian Vampire for $99.00. Yep there will be a video sometime about mods on him as well. Also you can power those eyes with 5 VDC. To 6 VDC no more than 6 volts. Glad you like my content. Thanks for the great comments.
@@briansgalaxynote2 Excellent, more so if you got them for $14 each, deal of the century right there for sure!!!! I bought more myself @ $14. Thank you for your comment.
My Home Depot has/had lots of the eyes in stock mainly because not many people feel comfortable taking apart the big skeleton and the new skelly has the eyes already installed I bought a few of them to update my skelly and add eyes to some other stuff maybe a jack o lantern or some other prop

Thank you for the comments.... ;-)
Great, just measure first to make sure that you can fit in the LCD eyes. It was a fairly easy install on this large of a skull that I used. Thank you for the comment.
Yes I plan on doing that. And there are 2 versions of this relay as well. The 2 versions program a little differently. Thanks for the comment. Stay tuned.😄
Would you be so kind to tell me the name of your power supply that’s on your workbench with the two red numbers and where I can purchase this thank you for your time

@mikecomptech I finally got them installed. I Unfortunately, put the screens are upside down when I get to fire and heart there upside-down. So left is on right side and right is on left side. Oops the good this I leave it on eye mode no fire or heart you can't tell. Super happy otherwise.
@@nsvaluto48328 Yes lol I almost did that myself.😄 How did you mount the eyes in the skull, hot glue that's what I used. Glad you enjoyed the project video. Thanks for the update and comments.
To power the Eye's is 5 to 6 volts DC. The black Longwei power supply is what is powering it. You can see the voltage I had it set to, and the current they pull. Thank you for your comment.
All depends what skull you have. I hot glued them in the Tractor Supply Skull that's where I bought this skull I installed the screens in. Had to cut a square access hole in the back of the skull to gain internal access.
My Home Depot has/had lots of the eyes in stock mainly because not many people feel comfortable taking apart the big skeleton and the new skelly has the eyes already installed I bought a few of them to update my skelly and add eyes to some other stuff maybe a jack o lantern or some other prop
Yes you are correct, some people just don't want to have to do this install. And you can't beat the price $30. I have 2 more sets myself. Thanks for the comment.
@@mikecomptech it’s kind of addicting every time I go to Home Depot I pick up a set, if I don’t use them this season will shelf them on the workbench, it’s crazy how much they are trying to sell them for on eBay, I was thinking of wiring a set into the plantation window blinds by the front door by an alcove to startle trick or treaters as if someone was looking between the blinds lol

This is great. Nice job on the LED eyes! thank you for sharing 👍
Thank you much appreciated. It was a tight fit in that particular skull. Thanks for your comment.
Shrunken Skully. Neat job as always Mike!
Thanks Trav, thank you for the + comment. 😄
Thank you for your video and all the help, I just set up my lcd eyes on a clown prop I made
Great good job. Glad to help you out. Thanks for your comment.

Yes not many people want to do this upgrade, my local store sold them all out.
Thank you for the + comment, more videos coming.
Is there a plug-in power supply I can order for this? I’m using it on another project and have no clue how to power it.

I would have liked to see you install the eyes. I bought a 10 ft skeleton and the eyes. Hopefully I can get it to work.
The eyes come with the screwdriver and everything you need was really simple maybe 15-20 minutes
Great, just measure first to make sure that you can fit in the LCD eyes.
It was a fairly easy install on this large of a skull that I used.
Thank you for the comment.
Do you have a video or instruction on how you programmed the relay?
Yes I plan on doing that. And there are 2 versions of this relay as well. The 2 versions program a little differently. Thanks for the comment. Stay tuned.😄

Your welcome it's not a skull it's a pumkin
@@nsvaluto48328 Yes I remember now you said pumpkin. lol 😄
Just got my eyes from my local Home Depot and they were on sale for $15 and they had probably 20-30 sets. Probably should have picked up a few more 😂
Great good job. I was at my local Home Depot today picked up another set myself for $15. I always like extra for backup. That’s a super buy indeed.
What did you do for power
To power the Eye's is 5 to 6 volts DC. The black Longwei power supply is what is powering it.
You can see the voltage I had it set to, and the current they pull. Thank you for your comment.
ok so how do us fans install these eyes again ???
All depends what skull you have. I hot glued them in the Tractor Supply Skull that's where I bought this skull I installed the screens in. Had to cut a square access hole in the back of the skull to gain internal access.
Very creative
Thank you for the + comment Glad you liked it, very fun to do. 😄
Where to buy
The skull came from Tractor Supply and the eyes can be ordered from Home Depot web site. Thanks for the ?
Where did you buy the eyes at?
They are available at Home Depot and Home Depot online
@@ntshdff thanks I checked another video and ordered 4!! But any chance anyone has a suggestion on a power source that will be ok outside?
excellent
Thank you again, a lot more coming. 😀
You sound like Beavis and buttheads neighbor
Well at least you didn't say I sounded like Beavis.
Well I guess thanks for the comment....

Yes it so rewarding to see a concept actually work when you are finished building it. The eyes are great at $30 ;-). Thanks for the comment.
