marketable slop, oh well shrug-outta-hecks

A blue LED behind the green lenses actually gives a more interesting effect than a green LED, sincs it seems these lenses fluoresce subtly under the blue light.

I still have to paint, weather, finish the wiring, etc. which knowing me will take me a few weeks/decades lenin-pogger. Usually, I'd just attach this to a base and run all the wires along the base arm to hide them. Only recently I found out about powering the LEDs wirelessly, which sounds way cooler...

      On the transmitting side you have a coil (like wireless chargers for phones) and on the receiving side you just have an LC resonator with the LED across it.

      Very little energy is received but enough for to light the LED.
