Hey /diy/,
I'm an amateur electical engineer. I recently assembled an arduino board with several LEDs and whatnot. What I'm look for are kits or tutorials for easy to medium difficulty electrical engineering projects. Any links, advice, or ideas are greatly appreciated.

Just think of something you want to build.

Get an IR sensor and a apple remote and control those LEDS. Write your own code for a clock.

Get an IR LED and have it randomly send out mac IR codes that turn their volume up then down. Then go to a coffee shop and trollllll

Same poster.

For example, I'm a fencer so I've build a fencer clock.

Start simple, first all it did was keep score, then I added the ability to hook it into the fencing scoring box and when someone scored, it stopped the clock. Just start working on something cool.

Sparkfun is your friend for parts

that.. might not be a terrible idea.

Get yourself some relays so you can turn equipment on and off, then start putting together some processes.
