New Props - Ideas with the WS2812

So I had an idea of covering some props with pixels (well not completely of course) and was looking at the WS2812 chips as an idea... I have no problem supplying my own wire, and wiring the items the way "I" wanted them to be.. but then I thought about how much of a PITA using wiring surface mount props would be.. then of course you need to make sure that the heat had somewhere to go...

Then I found this:

So here's what I'm thinking... I may purchase a couple hundred of these, wire them up and replace the incandescant lights on a number of my props... of course waterproofing will need to be addressed... but having the flexibility of doing something like this... I can only imagine the kind of props my wife will come up with.. LOL

Yea.. I may even see if there's enough interest and do a group buy... Thoughts?
