If you didnt find out, there is a very simple way to test this which anyone can do.
Send me a PM if you need to know and I will tell you how.

Someone with NCSExpert can activate it for you. Or you can manually tap the wire so you get some juice going through there.

So I have done one side of my eyebrows and they look great at night. however, right where the LEDS are, the lense is fogged up a bit, any suggestions on how to fix it? Where I siliconed it, do I need to allow a little whole for ventilation? Any input would be appreciated!

Im no expert, but condensation on the inside is due to a small hole somewhere.

My advise would be to take it apart again, stick it somewhere warm (and dry) for atleast 24 hours, probably run a hair dryer over it for 5 mins then reseal it up properly (within a warm dry environment), and by that I mean not in a shed, garage or drying room.
