Been playing around with the PIR sensor this morning.
Managed to wire it up and get some code from this very useful source
http://www.circuitmagic.com/arduino/pir-motion-sensor-with-arduino/
Now to understand the code. Changing some of variables and seeing what happens.
I really need to get on with having a go at soldering but having to wait until later in the week to catch up with my father in-law. He has a bit of experience and the kit. I did however find the following video useful.

For the rest of the week I think I'm going to have a look at the lessons and tutorials on element 14- Not sure why I haven't already done this!
Cheers

Hi Kaylee,
The best approach is to break the project into parts and solve the problems with each part and them put them together. Don't give up and keep going. I am looking forward to seeing your finished…
No problem, I'm just interested in watching it. you can edit it and upload it if you want.
I think you just tried to link a local file instead of reuploading it to our site.
