WingoAgency lol where should i buy from? im trying to understand what parts are in the diagram, because i dont know how to read it well, but i do understand where to soder what.
Depends on the quantity and how urgent you are to build this thing. I don't have recommendations as to where to buy. I just say that because, sometimes when those workers give me attitude, I walk out the store very :snail: . :biggrinpa
The whole thing should cost you very little. Radio Shack does have a web site.
R = Resistor and the marking 1K is the value of the resistor
(notice, the design uses 3 variable pods to adjust the value of the resistor, once again those workers should be able to show you which is which in the diagram)
C = Capacitor and the marking .47 micro F is the value of the capacitor
Timer => you can search by giving the IC number, soldering the timer should be done with heat sink.
5 pin DIN => has no dimension mentioned, so you have to eyeball it.
BC237 => do the search with the number and you can find it. However, you should find out how to tell the polarity of it during soldering. This may be the tricky part for beginners
As for the LED, don't buy it. I give it to you but of course you have to come to Brooklyn. I am building a huge LED array for testing of how LED affect reefing.
So how much are they selling the controller for? This controller seems very simple. May be I should build my own too and save myself a fortune.
