Nothing worse than 1am in the morning everyone is asleep.  You are being super quiet and just tweaking the last settings in your script and all of a sudden a loud shriek from your EZB,

MY BATTERY IS LOW, MY BATTERY IS LOW, MY BATTERY IS LOW.

I'm curious, in a different post you mentioned you were not using batteries anymore and wanted to disable the low battery warning. If you're using AC wall current and not batteries what's your reasoning behind keeping the voltage monitor for the EZB's active? Again, I'm just wondering.

I'm impressed with your skills you're using in this build. Nice work so far. I'm looking forward to seeing more.

hi:p

the iotiny is off bateries now . all on wall socket power . this configuration with step down regulators and back up with the small ones . needs to be 6.50 volts for power the iotiny . els it would no have enought voltage , for excample to lid up two eyes as seen in  the video . i raised the volt from 6. volt to 6.5 volts . i also included the ARC name of this project as NO BATTERIES PROJECT.

@dave

if my understanding of power to the controllers is correct , it doesn matter if the volt to the controller is 7.4 volts, or 6 volts for the servo's cause they will get there volts from the terminals ?so that means all controllers can have 7.4 volts ? question , is my assumption correct on this ?

thanks
