The idea for the elf house was hatched during a discussion amongst friends of beagles . He was tasked with producing a Christmas decoration using a toilet roll tube. beagles was asked if he could add a single white LED to their project. The project being a little elf house. He did better than that...

Whether you live in a big city where it makes sense for a lot of people to ride bikes rather than sitting behind the wheel in a car on a congested street, or you are riding your bike in a part of the country that does not have a lot of lighting, improving cyclist safety and preventing accidents is a great use of LEDs. This project was especially popular with the judges reviewing the projects and rightfully so. julior used this this opportunity to do a project that makes cyclist safer and decreases the likelihood that they'll get into an accident. His solution is ingenius, a BrightH2O bottle that makes the cyclist more visible! The prototype is based off an Attiny85 development board and it also uses an RGBW LED ring, an 850 mAh rechargeable battery, a Lipo Charger, 3D printed cap, and of course a water bottle.

dwinhold has elected to split his $100 Gift to Give between the following two recipients:

Speaking of wheels, dixonselvan was the grand prize winner of the recently completed IoT on Wheels Design Challenges. For him, the holidays are fun when they decorate their place with lights and stars .LEDs are mostly used for this purpose, so he's given a project as one of our judges pointed out is a "great project for fathers and kids." He made a really great DIY video series and provides you with all the required materials including a DC Motor and an Arduino Uno/Mega. Great video, documentation, and a project you can do with your kids next Christmas.
