where's everyone being getting their v3's from? where's the best place to get them? any links?
To be perfect, they still need to up the brightness of the EL and find more accurate fabric for the upper. But they are on their way.

Damn, wish I had waited to get my v3s now, the LED's do look much better now

True, but didn't NIKE have that material made for them after not being able to find it on the shelf?
Apart form upping the volts/amp, how can the EL be made brighter? These are what, 3.7V? Weren't the real shoes 3.7V? Does increasing the amp-hours in the battery increase wattage or just give longer run times?
I'd just like to see that mid-sole shape corrected. The rest of these shoes are amazing.

Regarding the EL brightness of the 2011 pairs, I direct everyone to this video: https://youtu.be/jQIggFOpcRk

Lol fair point. I'm just saying, that even the 2011 pairs have dim EL's in strong light
You can't really get a noticeable brightness difference doing anything but increasing the voltage and or frequency. The stock inverters were putting out 105-110v @ 360hz. I settled on 180v @ 400hz for a solid noticeable brightness increase.

That video showed, sure. Most of the other posted photos seem to suggest they are bright.

Were you able to change them in the shoes already? If so could you post pics or a vid?

Also, I'm looking for a spare charger. What do you guys recommend buying that is compatible?

I never got a charger and even though I was supposed to get one, it never turned up. So I ended up sourcing USB to 0.7mm leads that plug into a double USB charger. Cost about $40 all up.

razorsharp192, I think everyone here got ours from sneakerahead.ru they aren't going to take your money and send nothing, I got 2 pairs from them already

Haha well, I thought the V2s were as good as we were ever goanna get, that's why I bought 2 pairs when they first came out
I didn't think there'd ever be a V3 as good as these but sometimes it's nice to be wrong, isn't it?
I don't have the final boards yet, will show comparisons when I have them here side-by-side. Hopefully Chinese New Year wont delay them too much. Unfortunately they do take some soldering to swap out, although simple soldering.

With the panel brightness increase, does it stay same colour or end up more blue?
