Fiber Optic Costume Kit DIY Instructions

Sparkle Fibers

Sparkle Fibers show tiny twinkling lights along the length of the end glow fibers. They are more prone to breaking. Please be gentle with the Sparkle Fiber version of the Fiber Optic Costume Kit to avoid unwanted fiber breakage.

Product Notice

Multiple connected RGB Critter BTs may not perfectly match color-changing modes, but solid colors will always match. We expect a resolution for this issue in early 2025. Once we release firmware that includes a fix for this issue, you can update your RGB Critter BT using the app.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How does the RGB Critter BT Flashlight (torch) attach to the accessories?

The RGB Critter BT is an app-controlled color-changing flashlight (torch) that threads at the lens.
Accessories from the RGB Critter BT product line are also threaded.
You attach them to the RGB Critter BT by twisting them into the front end of the RGB Critter BT.
When the RGB Critter BT is turned on, it will light up the accessory that is attached.

How long does the battery last?

What's the difference between the Fiber Optic Costume Kit and the BitWhip Products?

How should I store my fibers?

Can I get my fibers wet?

My fibers are curling or straightening too much. What can I do?

Your Fyber Kit may develop unwanted curls or straightened fibers.
If that's the case, then you'll want to adjust how your end glow fiber optic product is stored. This is because end glow fibers will conform to the shape that they are stored. If you want more curls, then store the fibers curled.
If you want straighter fibers, then hang the product from your closet door until the fibers straighten out.
DO NOT expose them to temperatures that cause the plastic to melt. This will deform the fibers and cause them to bend. If you do want to use heat to manipulate the fibers, use the heat source on a small sample size of the product. If you like the effect, then you can apply it to the rest of the fibers. Melting or bending fibers is not reversible.

How bright is the flashlight?

No rainbow option?

I appreciate the programability and that I can turn off the buttons, but can't seem to find a way to do rainbow the way by spacewhip can. If it only had this feature, I'd give it five stars!

Hi Jennifer, thanks for your review! We're happy to hear that you like the programmability and button options of BitWhip BT Package. We understand your request for a rainbow option and want to let you know that our AOAM App offers multiple rainbow modes in the 'AOAM Playlists' section. You can also create your own rainbow modes using the 'DIY' page of the app. If you need any help with this, please feel free to email us. Thanks again for your feedback!

Great product, but room for improvement

I bought 3 Critter RGBs, they are a fantastic product and I love them. The only flaws might be able to be addressed with a firmware update. If the Critter is out of range of the phone controlling it then it goes into a random color flashing mode instead of just remaining in the mode and colour it was set to. The other frustrating thing is that although I can connect all 3 of my Critters in the app, I can’t control and set each of them individually, only as a group with the same settings. I would love to be able to set each of them independently and not need to have a separate phone for each one. If those features could be addressed it would be a perfect system for my needs. Thank you.

Hi Denson, Thank you for your review! We are constantly working on improving our product and are happy to inform you that a new firmware and app update will be released within the next 2 weeks. This update includes many new features, such as the ability for the RGB Critter BT to remain in the same mode when it accidentally disconnects from the app (out-of-range). We are adding the ability to independently control more than 1 connected RGB Critter BT using the app in early-2025. You can stay updated on all our pending updates on our website here: https://antsonamelon.com/pages/rgb-critter-bt-updates.

Thank you for your support and we hope you continue to enjoy our products.

I love the bit whip.

Highly recommend the bit whip critter. Especially the sparkle strand 200. They're so much fun for you and for everyone around you as well!

Love it

I love that it connects to my phone and I can make my own play lists with ease and the color variety is more. I'll love th bt critter even more when I can still use the bt even if my phone dies unexpectedly.

BEST WHIP

I reviewed every whip out there. Finally I looked up one I found from a girl who reviewed an older ants on the melon whip. I went and checked them out then. After alot of throughly reviewing whips I decided on the ants on the melon I thought seemed best. I'm so happy I choose this one. My friend has the firefly whip and hers is so broken in the fibers and loses alot of them often. Thanks for having the best product. I do wish tho it would work better or somehow without the app also. And I wish it beat to music as an option of diy with that too.
