Thanks for the update. By commenting out either function, the sketch will compile within the 5310 byte limit on the Trinket. For just checking to see if the sketch will compile, only need to select the Trinket or Gemma board in the Arduino IDE. No need to actually upload.But when I uploaded either sketch to the Trinket, the pixels just went "all bright white" so it appears to be something else that I'll look at over the holidays.No need to try fixing it if it works for you and others with other boards. I can always switch back to the previous versions. I'm already thinking ahead to next year of putting your sketch on a Adafruit Huzzah or other 8266 board for wireless control of the functions.Thanks again and have a great holiday! Max

The new combined sketch is great on the Nano. Unfortunately it's a little too big for the Trinket. I would suggest reposting the Neopix_colours2 for those with the smaller ATTiny85 boards (Trinket, LilyTiny,Gemma). Thanks.

Thanks very much for the Instructable. I replaced the entire assembly with an Adafruit Neopixel Jewel and Adafruit Tinket 5V (I didn't want to use a Nano set aside for another project). I just clamped the Trinket down with the screws that held the lamp socket. The solid wires from the Trinket provide enough support for the Neopixel. For the power supply, I used an old long Kindle USB cable and brick, back when Amazon used to include both with the reader.With the sketch I only had to change the pin designation for the Neopixel to 1 from 8 (and comment out the "Serial" calls).Our favourite tree is now nice and quiet. So quiet we have to check it all the time to make sure it's lit. :-)

Hi R.Thanks for the update. For the original project described in the instructable, I used a "SainSmart 2004 20x4 LCD I2C Module" with guidance (aka "code snipping") from the Arduino Step by Step Udemy course. Like most other I2C modules, it was connected to SDA on pin A4 and SCL on pin A5 on the Arduino. Since then I've used other LCD and OLED displays, each with their own slightly different LCD libraries that needed to be swapped in with adjustments in the code.

Good idea. I assume you would also provide some sort of anchoring to keep thieves from just walking off with the entire bench. I would also reinforce with a metal box to keep someone from just kicking in the wood sides.For allowing the delivery person access, post a note to use the last 4 digits of the tracking number. Or just leave it unlocked until the package is delivered.
