![]() Test of the Graph BarI bought this old russian nixie tube graph bar from ebay. Trying to make the code that will increase the length of the bar when the RPM from the hall effect sensor increase too. I also made a homemade driver for the tube. | ![]() Hall Effect Sensor TestUse of a motor connected to a potentiometer. The hall effect sensor is connect to my Arduino board, this way I can get a reading and convert it into RPM. The motor simulates the flywheel of my scooter where the hall effect sensor should be attached. | ![]() Close up Control PanelHandmade control panel with high Amp waterproof switches. - Master switch to power the panel "fighter jet style". - 1 switch to power the arduino board from a 12V DC converter - 1 switch to switch from km/h to miles/h - 1 switch to power an USB 2A outlet - 2 switches to select Spot/Flood for HID lights |
