Arduino Book...and the Pendulum Swing!
Dave Hrynkiw
December 1, 2008
Here's a great booklet to accompany any new Freeduino purchase - "Getting Started with Arduino", written by Massimo Banzi (the co-founder of the Arduino Project).
This title is based on his free-download introduction PDF, but takes is much farther, guiding new electronics enthusiasts into how to use the Arduino / Freeduino in a project.
Also cool is this little link we just received the other day from a customer of ours, Gary Gipson. Our book "Junkbots" was put to good use with this project! Instead of stationary electronics, these electronics swing! (Plus, it's darned cute!)

BEP Application: Pummer
The following instructions detail how to build a simple pummer using a BC2 (Bicore) BEP (Bicore Experimenter PCB). A pummer is a solar powered self activating LED flasher. The difference between a pummer and a BLFNAR (blinky light for no apparent reason) is that a pummer has a soft turn off, which means that it turns on fast, but slowly fades away.
