Super Brite LED Sneakers 1.0

Step 12Install the power switch

Install the power switch
Insert a slide switch into the wiring on your battery holder.  I inserted mine on the black lead.  Solder the red and black leads to the RBBB on the back of the PCB, just above the two fat capacitors that are on the other side.

Test
Flip the switch and make sure the green LED lights up on the RBBB.  Use an FTDI cable to upload a simple sketch to test out the board.  Don't forget to remove the battery if you are using USB power.

Upload the sketch
Once you're done testing, upload the SuperBriteLEDSneaker1_0 sketch to your RBBB.
