Portable Christmas Lights
In this step-by-step tutorial, you will learn how to create a small christmas light system that changes patterns.
Supplies
7 Large Jumper Wires(6 should be same color), 12 Short Jumper Wires(6 should be same color), 6 Red LED's, 6 Green LED's, 6 Yellow LED's, 2 330 Resistors, 2 10k Resistors, 2 560 Resistors, 1 Breadboard, 1 Arduino.
LED Placement
Add all LED's from right to left, spacing and order of LED color's don't matter.
Resistor Placement
Connect resistors to positive sides on the LED's. NOTE: 560 resistors go on red LED, 10k resistors go on green LED, and 330 resistors go on yellow LED.
Short Wire Placement's
Place short wires in the way from the following photo. NOTE: All multicolor wires should connect to negative side to LED's, while same color wires connect to negative charge line.
Long Wires to Ports
In front of each resistor, connect the same color long wires. After connecting them from one side, connect the other sides in the arduino ports from 12 to 7. After that, connect the remaining wire from the negative charge line into ground.
Code for the Circuit
Implement this entire code into the arduino software, you may have to make it yourself instead of copy pasting it in.
