Hello,
Im currently working on my first real noobish project, its a temp/moisture sensor for my brother for his organic garden,
i have all my leds and 330 resitors soldered on, but i need to know waht componets i need to take 4 AAA batteries and power my chip without the Arduino,
everything can fit into the container i want it in (an altoid can) but i need to know what resistors/capactors or regukaters i need ino order to safely run my hardware.
also what ways can i use my multimeter so i can measure the volts and amps, so i can calculate how long the batteries would power the device.
I hear alot of great things about the element 14 community and i cant wait to hear what you guys have to say
