Basically, it's a water bottle and a mountain dew bottle mixed together. With cool stuff added. 2 Blue LED's, and an Xbox fan. The machine is powered by a whopping 30 glue sticks, 2 C-batteries (one of the LEDs), 2-AA batteries (the other LED), and one 9V battery (for the Xbox fan).

It took me 3 hours to complete, from 1:30 AM -> 4:30 AM.

A week later, I blew it up and burned it <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    But how much faster does the water bottle run after you overclocked it?

    I disagree with the assessment that your Blue LEDs are 'Cool'. I prefer the term... 'tedious'.

    Why do you think he ripped them out of his pc and put them on his waterbottle which he had no intetion of doing anything with asside from blowing it up?

    Well, generally blue is one of the harder colors to make (bit easier in dying). Blue LEDs are a bit more expensive than regular Red/Green LEDs (...maybe not anymore ? <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo--> ); and blue fireworks are expensive and rare.


    Anyway, blue doesn't really work well in many electronics (my clcok's got the cool blue numbers, but pffft <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo--> ), usually you use green and red for good/bad/whatever. I find it's a bit too overused in case modding though.

    Well, I originally had the fan running off of the two AA batteries (3V), but I overclocked it to a 9V output! Man that thing ran fast. I had Linux on it, but I had to format it. Oh, and I bought the LED's from <a href='http://www.LSDIODES.com' target='_blank'>http://www.LSDIODES.com</a> (not from my PC <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo--> ).

    I really should've put the Gentoo logo in it... I feel bad now <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    MASS MARKETING FTW!

    Seriously though, I tried hard on this. But once in a while, I just stopped, and said to myself, "I'm modding a watter bottle. WTH am I modding a watter bottle for, FFS!?!?"
