So, I was referred to this site a while ago. I'm basically just trying to see if what I'm trying to do is completely outrageous or not. Some time ago, I was approached by a friend to make her a pair of light up heels for her Halloween costume. Seeing everything on the market was not very bright, I did just that - put in a couple super bright LEDs in a set of heels. Here are a few photos of the results. They are quite bright, even in a lit room. Unfortunately, in my haste, I did not make it possible to change the batteries, so after the 30 or so hours, you'd have to rebuild them.

Just chatting about what all could be done, I said on my free time I'd see what else I could do. Well, right now, I'm trying to design a circuit board to fit inside. It will listen for ambient noise (music), separate what it hears thru a series of filters, and pulse 3 different colored LEDs to the beat, depending if it's bass, mid, or treble note. Also plan on making these with lithium ion batteries to resolve the dead battery issue. Now, the reason I'm posting on this site is because I have to use stripper heels seeing the battery and circuit board is going to take up a good bit of room, although I'm doing my best to make it as small as possible.
Is this a completely dumb idea? Is it kinda neat? These are two things I'd never imagine combining together. Just wanting to get some opinions of what others think.
