Imagine the ideal beach trip. The sun is shining, the skies are blue, the water is warm, and the humidity is low. You and your friends have everything you need to soak up the sun, sand and surf: a cooler filled with drinks and snacks, sunblock, flip flops, the coolest new swimwear, and the newest […]
It’s been a while since I’ve published my last Instructables. I’m back, and I’m 3D-printed-powered! Enjoy this mini retro arcade machine. It’s literally my first complete end-to-end 3D-printed project: I made the design, printed it, assembled the electronics, programmed it, and now to the tutorial 🙂 This guide will be updated soon with instructions to

This simple device sits on your desk at work, ready to give you fist bumps throughout the day as you need them. A 3D printed “fist” is moved by a servo attached to a rack and pinion mechanism. An ultrasonic range finder detects when you place your hand near it, and an Arduino Uno controls

Hello everyone, and welcome to my Instructable! This instructable will show you how I made the first ever DIY Arduino controlled “LED Kaleidoscope”! What is an LED kaleidoscope? Well, our traditional kaleidoscopes used 3 mirrors joined as a triangle with stuff like sequins and stolen cake decorations at one end, to create an awesome pattern

This project is an update of my original Peak Power Tracker Battery Charger Project. It is designed to control a 12V solar panel charging a 12V lead acid battery. The updated version of this project uses the Arduino Duemilanove development board (from www.sparkfun.com) as the basis for the project. Then I used the Arduino Protoshield

I bought a solar powered garden light. The solar panel charges the batteries and when it gets dark the lights (3x LEDs) turn on until it either gets lights again or the batteries run out. It has a small amount of intelligence (turns on when dark off when light) but not enough! Time for some

The following design is for a Solar battery charger ran by an Arduino Nano. It can handle a standard lead acid 12V battery, like for a scooter or a car. Furthermore the design has been tested and runs with 90% efficiency under 70ᵒC (158ᵒF). It can take up to 20V on the input site of

Here’s a six word tragedy: My arduino needs four AA batteries. Really? Isn’t this 2012? Where’s my jetpack?!! Here’s a way to the future — a way to make a solar panel, from scratch, that can power any arduino off of sunlight or even light in your house. Sort of a peel-and-stick power source for

Add a remote buzzer to Smoke Alarms that are too far away be heard. Also add an optional Microcontroller interface e.g. Arduino. This document describes how to: Modify an escape-light type smoke alarm to sound a remote buzzer Create the buzzer module Create a microcontroller alarm interface including PCB layout Use an Arduino code example

When it comes to building the battery packs, Li-ion cells are one of the best choices without the doubt. But if you get them from old laptop batteries then you might want to do a capacity test before building the battery pack. So today I will show you how to make a Li-ion capacity tester
