What's one thing you may find yourself buying every year or even twice, thrice at times more and keep promising yourself: " Okay, I'll be more careful with this one?" Well, for me, its the earphones. I just never understand how they always keep spoiling.... Aand, its always on one side and then it sucks cause then its never as loud as it used to be. So I agreed with myself never to buy any anymore but instead, I will be my own handy man(or woman) and do the repair myself. That is where Soldering comes in. I am still not perfect but I thought i'd share on it and hope that you may try it too. Its a bit tricky but you'll just get a hang of it and hopefully, you won't waste your money all the time getting some new pair of earphones. Aand even get to brag on doing repairs for yourself. So my definition of soldering is " Soldering is a skill that enables you to join electronic components using some molten metal called the solder(which not only pro

So, I did a simple code that I thought would be fun to share. Its more or less like the basics of embedded systems. Inputs and Outputs. Actually, maybe its the basics of everything. So I'm Kenyan and our currency is the Shilling( Ksh ) hence any time i mention money, I will refer to it in Ksh form. You will approximately need about Ksh 800 to have this project up and running(FYI, everything you use in this project is reusable and integrate-able to other projects). Requirements: A push button An LED Two resistors( I used 220 Ohm and a 10K one) A Microcontroller (MCU) I will be using node MCU but you can do it using Arduino with exactly the same code that I made. A lot of jumper wires of course. I made a breadboard layout of how you can place your parts. I made it using Fritzing . Feel free to download and start drawing out your projects. The logic of the code is that: Before the button is pressed, the LED is off. When the button is being pressed, the
