Update #21: Photos of Color LEDs

Posted on April 18

Backers,

In just a few days we’ll send out the remaining Kickstarter surveys to collect up-to-date Green and Yellow Jersey Backer information (i.e. t-shirt size, shipping address, etc.). Please respond quickly so we're prepared when ready to ship.

Also, please note, Green & Yellow Jersey Backer t-shirts have not been sent. They will be packaged and shipped with the Revolights.

In terms of the CUSTOM Revolights for Yellow Jersey Backers only, below are photos of the color LEDs (disclaimer: colors may look slightly different in person). Per Kickstarter Update #8, options include:

White, Pink, Red, Orange, Yellow, or Green.

Feel free to use these photos as a reference when making your color decision, and keep your eyes peeled for the survey!

- Kent, Adam & Jim
