DIY Project of the Day

And a great way to get sued after the neighbor realizes you're staring down her window switching her tv on and off lol.
 
Oh I had to double take, thought it was a "10 years ago today" link in the news feed.

adafruit is good for quality though from my experience though usually over priced. Pay for convenience.
 
Now if I could just find one that would turn off my next door neighbor's electric guitar amp. I'm so tired of him butchering Hendrix at insane volumes... :(

Actually.. an even better idea would be to wire it up to a random timer circuit.

Coordinate it with multiple creepy sound effect devices, and you can create your own little haunted house.

What you do is find someone that does know how to play - and I mean hardcore shredding - and have him get in a "jam session" with the guy, acting kind of newbish, with the guy starting out first to kind of show him "how to play". Then, after the guy has his guard down, your friend just goes balls out on him. Once he's done thoroughly thrashing the guy have him pick up his gear, turn to the guy, and politely tell him how badly he sucks and that he should stop wasting his time and stop annoying his neighbors because he'll never amount to anything musically.

Gut-punch humiliation can be very effective at crushing aspiring talentless fools.
 
Shoulda ordered it a week earlier, in time for the World Cup. Imagine the possibilities!
 
Back in the 90's there used to be a wrist watch... Casio, maybe? It had the IR on it and I remember a friend of mine turned on/off TVs in the classroom.

It was amazing!
 
Why build it when you can spend a little more and buy one of these instead?

Lol.. One of my friends really knows how to play. He used to have jam sessions in his room when he was renting a room from us. I actually had my audio gear hooked up in his room for watching movies and for his jam sessions... so loud.. was a lot of fun.
 
need to wire about 6 of these into a omnidirectional ball, mount it to the top of your car (or on the front of a bike) turn them on and drive slowly down residential streets, causing howls of anguish as you disrupt assorted mindless tv shows.
 
come on steve, thats $3 worth of parts. (free if you consider that all that should be scrounged up pretty easily)
 
Yes, it is indeed a very useful thing for only having 8 pins. I've programmed a whole bunch of them to do different things (including a function generator!).
