[QUOTE="Jango Fett Jr, post: 54207, member: 102"] Success! I tried out that schematic, and it works awesome. The 100k make it too fast compared to the [url="http://www.thedentedhelmet.com/bbt/rf_display.htm"]example[/url], so I'm going to try 200k to make it half speed. One problem I realized with my original idea in my diagram; the LEDs will need to both go to the chip, they can't simply connect together and then go to te chip with two wires. Not to fear, I will just need to change my switch a bit. More to come! [b]*EDIT* [/b]------------- Here are some photos of my little controller board. I haven't trimmed it down yet, so it looks bigger than it is. It's really about 1.5x1.5". Also some photos of my earpiece attached with magnets, I had to countersink them a fair bit which ended up being tricky. I modded the trianglular prism part to be a bit taller because it was too short. [ATTACH=full]1642[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1643[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1644[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
