White fluid is possible i have some and been testing it for 8 months. but there are problems with it. and until these problems are solved it will never be sold.
1) its not a dye but a chemical fluid
2) It cannot be used in injectors else it can separate
3) It doesn't move heat around as well as water
4) After so long it WILL start to block you system up.
Hmm, has yours blocked up yet? I mean, if its been 8 months and hasn't, then that's good, coolant should be changed yearly.
Also, how "badly" does it move heat?
Well with all liquid i put them under a microscope and check out there particle size and all so if the partials stick. I do this every week over a few months and at 3 months the white liquid showed signs of them sticking together. Now given time this would gloop into a mass.
These tests are run on standing liquid as well as moving liquid though a loop and it happened on the standing liquid which is not good at all.
Hence there is no way it could be released.
Checking my results all so the temp was +8c / +10c Over my normal set up of normal water. so that's quite a jump just for a white liquid.
All are looking excellent. But i like the green one.

Im re working the UV green as ive had some one look at it and its a weak color when in the pipe but under UV is seriously strong Just doesn't look it under normal light. Im playing around to make it a stronger green under normal light.
Looking forward to results!
So does anyone know how i can get my hands on one of these dyes? I got a project to do in my dorm and would love to use these to stain some water for the effect im aiming for.
When shop goes live after xmass some time youll be able to order.
It is Xmas today, i've been waiting for the site to go up for like 4 weeks now :( really really wana order some blood red:caution: dye. was wondering will XSForums members will have a special code to save like 5-10% off order or something like that??
also have you had any chance to see what kind of UV Cold Cathodes work best for the Dyes? Have you done any test with some Lazer LED's like This and This. hoping that your site goes up before new years :D
I have the UV one. I can post a pick with the yellow/green if you want. My first impression would be that they are super spot-lighty. You have to diffuse the light in order for it to look like a band and not 5 individual dots.Quote:

Allso with leds its best to use tin foil to spread the light or direct it in a manner befitting of what your after.
These pics were taken using a Cold cathod UV light With tin foil directing the light towards the glasses not leds as i normaly use.

there is a tin of paint off to the right hand side i used the powder dyes mixed in to paint the girls bedroom and we threw in a black light into there and there bedroom is now metal .....
The Shop has 3 main section's there will be the powder dyes, the water cooling dyes and the Pre mix fluid.
Ive allso been asked to post this from other members who have seen it.
I am allso working close with some one on this new fluid / powder.
It live micro bio mass.
This basicly is cloned parts off fish that is self lighting. (no need for UV tubes)

How ever it only lasts for 2 hours atm so is more of a gimmic than any thing else how ever if you showing you loop at a show this will make it stand out as there is no light need to make it glow in the dark.
There are no light tricks here ....
this is a natrul product ... gene splicing stuff.
Only your second link will light the dye the way it's supposed to. Either that or a true UV cathode.Quote:

Radi, this is the problem with those "lazer" LED's.
Stock they look like this:

So you have to diffuse them in order to make them not look like spotlights:

WOW love the pink one. i'm building this rig for me girl, and i'm sure she would love that pink :D the one in the wine glass looks more darker red/pink while in the Micro res it looks a lot lighter.... can't decide which one to pick once the store is up and running.
oh and a very dumb question... when you say "you have to diffuse them in order to make them not look like spotlights" sorry but what do you mean by diffusing them? i don't really understand :( i holded off on buying the Lazer LED, i was thinking of ordering 4 sets of CCF but they were too expensive for just lights, and thought i'd save a few bucks and order 4 sets of Lazer LED's one for each side of the case :) i can't find a good review or cases with the Lazer led's to see how much 1 of those lights up. maybe i might only need 2-3, 4 might be too bright.
those are great ideas for the picture there, are you going to use a softbox for the pictures though?
AMAZING :eek:Quote:

The reason the glass looks better is because Differant Glass / Plastic give diffrent results.
The coulours are all the same but even res's give diffrent results wich ill show after.
Allso depening on how much dye you use will give diffrent looks as well as diffrent UV Leds or CCFL or Strip lighting.
Well Here you go ive used diffrent Res / glass to show that each colour will look diffrent ...

You can see Pink in 1 chamber and pink on the left side and they both look diffrent but there both from the same mix.

When it turns dark ill add UV light and youll see the contrast in diffrence even more.
Softboxes are easy to make yourself as well.Quote:
