Dec 15th- 101's- Bikes Group


Worked with Jacob.

Added screws to bike stand, but countersink bits were defective.

Jacob wanted to add lights to bike that came on when it got dark,

Showed him photoresistor- in light, resistance about 1 Kohm; in dark, about 10 kohm.

Made voltage divider using Arduino 5V supply and breadboatd.

See https://learn.adafruit.com/photocells/using-a-photocell.








Ran Analog Read Sketch:



This gave nice light vs dark readings.

Added speaker for sound on pin 8 and LED for light on pin 13:


Jacob wanted to use LED strip( 4 wire)- will have to investigate specs.
