WIRE EXTENSIONS

A project log for Traffic Jam

Red light, green light, 1-2-3! Using an Arduino to control giant surplus store traffic lights

If we wanted to hang the lights on the wall we were going to need some wire extensions. I took black and white 18g cable (10ft of each color) and twisted them together using a drill. Next I used wire strippers to take off the insulation on the ends and attached the female 2 pin molex connectors and then did the same thing with the male connectors on the other ends. Finally I put red, green, and yellow electrical tape on the ends to easily identify which wire went to which light.
