The OriginsWhen we decided to throw a party in LA (which became know as The Gathering) I wanted it to be more than just free t-shirts and beer. Laser Graffiti popped to mind and I was glad that Ben was willing to take the lead on that project....
Updated photos with progress on the new deck. Will be adding more information soon as I comb through a lot of additional progress pictures from the new build. Stay tuned!
For a complete chronological journey through the process of converting a car to electric, please check out the build logs below. The following is just a top-level description of the project and its outcomes.
Hardware setup expects an Arduino Micro with the following hardware attached:Big Dome Button hacked to support RGB LED, microswitch normally open pin connected to pin 12, Common Anode RGB pins connected to PWM pins 9, 10 and 11.RGB Illuminated Rotary...
