The lightsabers are done!
Sep 22 10:32 am - lightsaber, ljussabel, star wars

Finally, they are ready! The first post is here and the second is here! The biggest problem I had was the code on the Raspberry Pi and Arduino, but now it works!
This is what it looks like when you turn them on! So cool!

The main thing is that I can control them via the Home app, as you can see I have four settings: full, half, cozy, and Halloween for different modes.
In the code, it is set so that on May 4th, it doesn't matter which of the above I choose, all become "full," meaning full blast on all four lightsabers with the correct colors.
But from December 1-24, it's different; then one sixth of each lightsaber lights up per day, or rather, the first day it's one sixth of the first lightsaber in the right color, the seventh day it's the whole first lightsaber and one sixth of the second, etc. So it will work like an advent calendar, cozy!
