The "Walliminate" light-up wallet

by Donald Melanson, posted Jun 2nd 2006 at 4:34PM

Who knows how long we'll still be carrying wallets around, what with commerce-enabled cellphones and implantable RFID chips, but if you're hanging out in dark places that only take cash (we're talking about a bar, of course) and you want to avoid tipping a hundred dollar bill, Nate True's "Walluminate" light-up wallet may be just what you need . It's not for sale, and he doesn't provide any detailed plans (thought you can peep its debut here), but any self-respecting DIY-er should be able to figure out how to whip one up, using just a couple of LEDs and some miscellaneous electronic components.

I wouldn't try going through Airport Security with this unless you plan on missing your flight and being the guest of the TSA for a few hours.
