LeonieArienne Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 I'm still hoping, every time i listen to Charlie Brown, that suddenly the xyloband starts lighting up, but it never does:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cris_Santos Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Hahha how cool! Can't wait to go home and try to bring mine back to life! Thanks for the tip ;) The clocks' batteries inside it are supposed to make it work for about 2 hours... after that we'd have to replace them, but don't know if we would be able to close it properly again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobalt Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Wireless networks are mostly working on 2.4GHz or 5GHz, I doubt that the Xylobands are build to "listen" to those frequencies (it wouldn't make any sense). I think that they just get activated by random data sent trough the airwaves (theres a lot of trash around us). It would be interesting to know if Xylobands with the same colours (or the same code on the back) start flashing/glowing together (which would confirm my theory). Btw: I really had to laugh about the association to Major Minus. Thats why I just love this band :D More I think of it more I think it's not possible. But as you said, mostly those frequencies. Maybe that's why a small amount of people are getting some kinda interference or some shiz. I dunno anymore lol was just entertaining possibilities Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

princesanji Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 I have the explaination to it all actually ._. See, they do have the hole in the sides because there i think was a piece of paper. some of the visitors were helping the officials to activate them. the piece of paper is between the battery and one of the metal clamps to prevent contact before use (saves battery). when pulled out, a xyloband is working, however, by shorting out the contacts and the battery you will see one flash as a sign that it is fully working and not damaged. that is why they flash. i haven't found any way to let them glow longer, except if you hook up the leds and the battery directly, so you can throw out the circuit board with the radio receiver. however i would still like the know which radio frequencies are used.... so we can make them glow again in rhythms etc. for those who do not intend to let it blink but want to have it shine only, they can insert a switch and solder the battery to the leds. (maybe 1 resistor is needed, but guys who can solder can find that out, too^^) good thing: they have screws so you can open and close them easily oh and btw: did you notice the codes?! what the hell? they are all different so.... weird...

R23 Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 At some point I had inserted the paperclip correctly apparently and it kept glowing. One little move later and it just flashed again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
