==== Result ====

Current status: \\

{{:projects:img_e5344.jpg?nolink&200|}} 
{{:projects:img_e5345.jpg?nolink&200|}}
{{:projects:img_e5346.jpg?nolink&200|}}

Only one LED stripe on the backside. \\
Plan is do have two, starting at the below middle and over the shoulder to the front. \\ \\
Battery and esp8266 are placed in the bottom next to the rain cover.
