My LED modded GC.

Post by ShockSlayer »

Figured I should post it. You cant tell cause its dark, but is a platinum top with a black bottom.

2 blue LED's + a PulseVU 2x

I got a random pushbutton switch to control SW on the chip.

As cool as the PulseVU is, you can do the same thing with a TIP-31 :P
Or even a 2N2222 really...
Heck, an LM386 would do the job too.


Regardless, it's still a sweet mod SS :D

Edit:
For justice 'n' whatnot.
I figured, "hey, I got the stuff, why not?"
So, yeah, just made this.

Works like a dream!


I have to admit though, something like the PulseVU will ALWAYS have "smoother" results.
Still, I love doing it the 16 cent way :lol:

Yep. Does your 16-cent also have 16 different modes? Mine does. :P

Not yet :cry:

... You know, I ought to make a simple little program for a cheapo MCU (ATtiny2313 or PIC 12F629) that does that...
Try to make it use as few parts as possible.
If a did it right, I bet I could keep the cost under $5, put up the schematics/hex for free.

Ooooo I should do that....

Well, I looked into a bit...

The PulseVU is opensource.

You could make one for about $4.
