Replacment Batteries for the Fiber Optic Lights

Strands are 15" long, but can be cut to any length - a star of light appears wherever the fibers are cut. Strands come in a cascade cut pattern, but they can be arranged in almost any pattern - use your imagination! Caution: HIGH heat will melt the plastic fibers.

How do they work? The fiberoptic lights consist of a small unit which houses two small watch batteries and a light source. The light source lights up a bundle of approximately 60 flexible fiber optics which extend out of the unit. The light travels down each fiber and only becomes visible at the very end. So wherever the fiber is cut, that is where the star of light will appear.

First attach the battery unit. It can be hidden under a layer of hair or clothing so that only the lights are visible. The flexible fibers can then be treated just like strands of hair - loop, bend cut, etc. You can do almost anything with the fibers that you do with hair, with the exception of using a curling iron; high heat will melt the plastic fibers.

To maximize brightness, always cut the fibers at a 45 degree angle. If the fibers are cut flat, then much of the light will just go straight out the bottom. But cutting at a 45 degree angle will cause the light to bounce or reflect outwards, making the optics 2-3 times brighter!
