2/2/2024 0 Comments Arduino kits radio shack![]() The pins are on the same side as the pin for the IR LED. Connect the battery connector positive lead (Red) to the switch. Solder the negative lead of the IR LED to the resistor. If crimping pins are not available to ensure conductivity, shape the pins into a hook and wrap the wire around the pins. Allow plenty of time for the solder to dry and hold. NOTE: The pics show crimping pins recycled from a wire kit and cold solder were used to ensure conductivity. Solder the push switch to the positive side of the wire to the IR LED. Note which lead is the positive lead (long side). Solder wire to the end of the IR LED leads. Cut two lengths of wire to be 8.5 inches long to reach from the IR LED toward the opposite corner of the paper. Place the IR LED (blue tinted LED) onto a corner of the 8.5 x 11 inch paper. The resistor is connected to the negative (-) side of the battery.ġ. The negative side (usually the short side) of the IR LED is connected to the resistor. ![]() The push switch will enable power from the positive (+) side of the battery to the positive lead (usually the long side) of the IR LED. ![]() Supplies: 8.5 x 11 inch paper or construction paper IR LED (Radio Shack - Model: 276-142 | Catalog #: 276-142 ) blue tinted LED 550 ohm resistor (from multi-pack) 9V battery 9V battery connector (Radio Shack - Model: 270-324 | Catalog #: 270-324) SPST push button switch (Radio Shack - Model: 275-002 | Catalog #: 275-002) Wire Tape Conductive Wire Glue (Cold Solder) (Radio Shack - Model: NK5018 | Catalog #: 64-146) Decorations Schematics: See schematic created at The 9V battery will power the circuit. The button switch is hidden inside the tube and will activate the IR LED. This magic wand is designed to operate similar to a flashlight and should only work with this kit. These instructions describe how to make an Infra-Red Emitter in the shape of a magic wand.
