Nike Mag V2 Mod Discussion (Page 58 Shopping List)

Re: Nike Mag V2 mod discussion and builds

I think i might do what clone props did and make the piece in a 3d cad program and get it 3d printed then mold it and cast it in polyurethane or some other material.
Also what was the shore harness of your soles?

OC80A was the spec I was given, so I assume that is world wide and not just ERA's spec. I was hoping cloneprops would have uploaded his 3D model for printing by now, His were size US9 I think. Not sure how hard it is to scale it larger or smaller.

Also when wired in series, if you have a bad solder (dry joint) or if one LED goes out, they ALL go out. In parallel, only the fault does not light.

hi
was wondering if you could help

when wiring the 12 leds in parallel for the 3v power source

would i wire 1 resistor per each positive row?

so i would have a resistor on each positive row.

or do i put 3 resistors one after each other right at the end of the positive connection?

i think this is how kingtheydon tried it, but thats been soldered on a pcb board, so soldering is slightly different when done on the actual v2 led board.

Re: Nike Mag V2 mod discussion and builds

on the v2 led board, if reusing it for 3v parallel wiring.

do you still have to place a small wire from each + to - row?

i mean the vertical wire link from the top row + to the second rows + and then the second rows + to the third rows +?

You can. Doing this keeps each bank separate.

I honestly don't think it matters too much if the resister goes before or after the LED. If after, you might only need one, not three.

I am yet to buy the parts I need, but when I do, I post images.

Thank you. These have all the latest upgrades.
They are size 11's.

Re: Nike Mag V2 mod discussion and builds

What is the length difference between sizes? Is it about 1/4 inch?

Brad, are your size 11 "wearing pair" too loose on you or just right?

I'll do a "line up" of the pairs that I have from 8.5 to 11.

Thanks Jedi, just added my name to the list.

Re: Nike Mag V2 mod discussion and builds

Here ya go. These are size (from left to right) 8.5, 9.5, 10, 11

Looks like there is no difference in length from 10 to 11 but the upper has more room.

Re: Nike Mag V2 mod discussion and builds

Thanks so much for those pics! Interesting that the 10 and 11 look almost the same except for the upper, as you said.

**sorry for the super-analyzing of the sizes - I just want to be sure as you can't return these easily**
I think I'm gonna order a pair of 12's, as that's my regular shoe size, and I'd rather be 100% sure they won't be too tight on me. And it's not like they're gonna look WAY bigger than 11's. While I could probably get my foot in the 11's, I'd rather have a bit of wiggle room, and I don't want to stress the elastic laces any more than necessary getting my feet in and out.

That picture Pinn posted of his toe being about 3/4" back from the front in the 11's is less toe room than I have in my normal shoes. His foot being the same length as mine confirms I should get the 12's.

Re: Nike Mag V2 mod discussion and builds

Hey, guys I'm planning to buy a pair of V2 soon. I am size 8.5 US in regular nike shoes. I read that I need to buy a smaller size. Do you think that I should order 8US or 7,5US (not even sure that exists).

Something else, I've read a few times that for some of you karin chen's aliexpress shop (Aliexpress.com : Buy Mag Glow In The Dark Men's Basketball Sport Footwear Sneaker Shoes Gray / White from Reliable Mag suppliers on Karin Chen's store) is the best one to buy a pair? Is it still ok or do you have some other good websites to advice?

Sorry for my english and thanks for your help!
