Step 7Other Thoughts
A couple of other thoughts:
1. If you end up using the project as only a bicycle light set, you don't need a micro controller. You only need:
2 Enclosures
1 Key Switch
1 Battery
1 Battery Connector
2 Cable Zip Ties
12 LED Mounts
8 Red LED's
4 White LED's
1 270 Ohm Resistor, rated at least 7W to be on the safe side.
2. The standalone Arduino can be a bit tricky to get working, but allows for integration into small projects.
3. You don't have to use a key switch for the lights, but it is nice because you don't have to worry about somebody being a jerk and turning on your lights to kill your batteries.
4. Use at your own risk. I cannot be held liable for anything that happens or does not happen that is in any way related to this Instructable. I cannot also guarantee that any of the information in this Instructable is fit for use. I can simply state that it worked for me.
