I love this one! It’s brilliant! Anyone who hasn’t seen it yet needs to do so now…
More Blinkylights

Behold Blinkylights Two!
As of yet I still haven’t got much in the way of input for the arduino so it’s limited to just flashing sequences for the time being. Although I do have some potentiometers I can hook up, adjustable fade time would be nice.One thing that has bitten me though is how much I suck at maths.
I may want to consider getting a couple of those 16-Channel PWM chips I linked to previously. Then I’d be able to really get some shine on! 
But next step should be actually assembling some of those power-led driver circuits.
Snow!

It snowed last night!
Dougie enjoyed the snow too!
Alexie made snowballs. Her college called a snow day, alright for some.
My first Arduino Blinkylights!
by Daniel on Feb.01, 2009, under Electronics
My Arduino finally arrived the other day and here’s the first thing i’ve done with it. It’s not much, but I was just sat on the sofa in the living room with a breadboard, a handful of LEDs, resistors and a bit length of Cat-5.
Watch blinkylights!
I also made a pulsing light with PWM. Which is nice and glowy.
The documentation in the Arduino Playground is really quite nice.Next step, make the High-Power LED driver and hook up some of the Luxeon stars
