Mobile
Alert/Cell-U-Lert Adaptor
Why does the Mobile Alert bracelet flash
sometimes when my cellphone doesn't receive a call?
The circuit in the charm is designed to detect any mobile
phone in use nearby and in addition will detect other devices using
the same frequencies found in mobile phones, as for example, home portable
phones working on the 900 Megahertz band.
How do I know when to change the batteries?
With your headphones on, plug
the cord into the adaptor. If you hear no beeping tones through your
earphones right away, the batteries need replacing.
Where do I buy
new batteries?
The coin cell batteries (model 2032) are available in
most drug stores, Radio Shacks, some Dollar stores, and Internet battery
suppliers. Costs range
from under a dollar to a few dollars per battery depending upon source.
How do I turn the Adaptor off?
The adaptor is designed to
turn on automatically upon inserting the headphone jack and turn off
upon its removal.
Why is there a volume control?
Sometimes you might want
to adjust the volume of the alert tone. For example, when you have
the volume of the music set very
low so you
can hear
surrounding sounds, you might want to lower the volume of the
alert tone so that it isn’t
too loud when activated. Conversely, if the music is blasting
in the headphones, you might wish to adjust the alert tone to be very
loud.
How often should I replace the batteries?
Typically, the
batteries should last for months in detection mode, but the estimated
battery life is dependent upon how many
phone calls are
received and how long each one lasts. The best practice
to prolong battery life would
be to unplug your headphones from the adaptor while you
talk on your cellphone. In this way, the adaptor will not need any
power to keep
the alert tone
going while you’re holding a conversation. Once your
call is completed, plug the headphones back into the adaptor
to activate
the detection feature.

Fiberoptic Apparel and Custom Fiberoptic Signage
How do I order a pair of fiberoptic “Kissing
Lips Jeans” and
how much do they cost?
There are a few dealers who offer these
unique creations for sale. Contact info@jfmagic.com for
the name of a dealer
closest to
your location.
JF Magic only sells jeans through distributors and dealerships.
Typically, these jeans retail around $50.
How do I care for my “Kissing
Lips Jeans”?
Washing Instructions
- Remove the blue compartment
from the “watch” pocket by unplugging the cord
attached.
- Tuck
the cord back into pocket.
- MACHINE WASH, GENTLE CYCLE, COLD
WATER, LINE DRY. DO NOT USE BLEACH.
Replacing Batteries
- Unscrew plug on reverse side of blue plastic
battery compartment 1/8” turn. (Coin Cell Type 2032.)
- Pry the
coin cells out noting their positions with regards to
the positive and negative sides (positive side facing up, negative
side facing down.)
(Batteries are standard 2032 style used in cameras and
may be found at most drug stores, camera shops, and Radio
Shack
stores.
Battery
Life approximately 10-20 hours.)
How can I order
a coat with fiberoptics with a design that I make up?
Custom jackets,
coats, wall hangings, framed pieces, etc. can be ordered directly
through JF Magic, however, the cost
is quite
expensive for
the first piece.
There are many hours of artistic graphic and software
development, custom printed circuit board, labor, and machine time
involved.
There is almost
a mile of
fiberoptics in each jacket although the weight is imperceptible.
What would a custom piece cost using the same amount
of fiberoptics found in the “Fireworks” or “Starfield” jacket
shown?
The first custom piece containing a total of 1000-2000
points of light to define a series of animated frames
would fall within
the range
of $1500-2000.
From that point on, the retail cost for the same piece
on a jacket, vest, frame, etc. would run about $499. The Fireworks
and Starfield denim jackets retail at $499 each.
If I buy a Fireworks coat, can I place my own embroidery
on it or add anyone’s
embroidery to it?
Of course, in fact we have seen this done
by one consumer who bought one and added embroidered Disney
characters
cut
out of another
article
of clothing. The resulting creation caught the attention
of many Disney fans.
If I wear one of these jackets in
the rain, will it still work?
The jackets are water resistant and will
even function underwater. The battery case is not waterproof, but
since it is inside a pocket,
rain will not
affect the operation of the jacket’s animation
functions.
Since the jacket is run by batteries, will
I get a shock if it rains?
No, the 6 volts that are
necessary to run the electronics of these jackets, jeans, etc. is
not sufficient
enough
power to give anyone
a shock.

Glo-Bugz and Floral Stars
How do I turn the Glo-Bugz on?
You must first unscrew the
battery case and remove the paper insulator placed inside designed
to prevent accidental activations
during shipping. Replace
the battery holder and depress the switch.
After I removed the insulator,
the unit still did not function, what next?
Tighten the battery case
further until the unit lights. The battery case is equipped with a
watertight seal and the rubber ring
may prevent
the unit from functioning if it is not screwed on tight.
How long
before I need to replace the batteries?
The Dragonfly will typically
run 24/7 for 2-4 weeks on one set of “AA” alkaline
batteries. The butterfly, however, uses 3 light sources to
blend the colors and typically runs only 9 days on the same set
of batteries
24/7.
If I put the lighted bugs outside in my garden, will they
work?
Yes, there is a stake provided for just such an application,
but even though the Glo-Bugz are water resistant, dependent
upon the severity
of weather
conditions (ie. freezing rain, frost, thawing, hail, etc.),
we cannot guarantee them under those conditions. As a sidenote,
if a few dragonflies
are placed
throughout a garden, the resulting effect of their blinking
appears like they’re
flying across the flowers at night. It’s quite a unique
visual effect.
Are there any other types of Glo-Bugz besides
the blinking Dragonflies and color-changing Butterflies?
Presently
the two types are the initial designs offered, but JF Magic will be
offering additional “Bugz” in the future. Check back on
our website occasionally for updates.
