I have started playing with the Arduino, so far every project has been successful, I have not yet written anything myself so I am not going to post pictures or process of any of them since they are all somewhere on the internet already. I have made some minor tweaks to every single one but nothing huge to change the behavior of the project. I am currently learning the code and should soon have the building blocks to put something together, Projects I have accomplished:
1. Chasing LED lights
2. Blink LED
3. Fade LED
4. Beeping song
5. 5 LED POV. (not yet tested)
6. Servo with a potentiometer
7. Nikon Remote control
I am trying to work with the 5×7 LED matrix and perhaps ad a second 5×7 to the mix to make a scrolling text display. I am still browsing the forums to find the basic skeleton for the project I’m researching. Timed lighting with moon/mood light for my fish tank and eventually I’d like to add an RGB mood light as well with a clock to automatically turn it on and off and a daily feeder using a servo. I have other plans and should be doing some research and post some pictures when I start working on it.
Happy Arduinoing!

Also wools like to have a sealed case for the components. I’m thinking one like the pelican cases to start.
