The version 4.01 board arrived last week and I had to wait for a little more for the red 5mm Top Hat LEDs to arrive as well. And so, after some soldering, the board is ready for testing. Getting this board populated was a heck frustrating since most of the components arrived right smack in […]

20240602 Lighting for the AndersFP Blaster Pt.05 – PKD & Ghost Mode programming and test fitting the Board

Yesterday, I got the opportunity to collect the long-awaited 3D prints. And I am quite impressed with the result. We did discuss more on going further on this Project but as it started to rain and my Wife wants me back asap, we have to cut everything short. In hindsight, this would be much faster […]
