Another 2 pics of work in progress.
My goal is to have 2 of those panels.
Next week number 2 will be ready. I already found me a nice plexiglas tube.'
I am gonna add these panels on the outside. Rest of tube will be coverd with alu foil for reflecting purposes, in the hope the light will bounce.

Hello Stevie
Why are you using 4 different colors is it to cover a hole range of frequencies NM.

Hi Najman,
There is indead a reason for it.
Let me try to explain:
The hydrogen is the most simple atom we know. It has 1 proton and 1 electron.
The electron circles around the proton.
This electron can orbit around the proton in different orbits. From close to far off the proton.
These defined orbits have names, like N1 N2 N3 N4 N5
Natur dictates that all electrons move towards the proton to the most inner orbit.
By moving to the proton, the electron releases photon (light) energy.
You can influence this mechanisme. When you add an electromagnetic field to the electron, it will move quicker to the proton.
Or, like mother natur does, you can add photon energy to the atom and the electron will gain energy and move towards the outer
orbit , or even LEAVE orbit.
Well...we do not want electrons in our gas.....
So, we must get those electrons out of orbit. Now, scientists discoverd the fact that atoms do not consume any light.
They found out that every orbit consumes a specific frequency and let other frequencys pass.
The reason why i use 4 specific LEDS is because i found out which frequency i need for each orbit.
The Balmenlines shows us the exact frequencys.
I hope that i can shoot / promote the electron from inner orbit to outer orbit and then out into the free air!
I hope this is the answer on your question.
