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.

yeach am almost there . just the small regulators for each controller set at 6 volts . in ARC batterie settings put them on 6 volts insteadt at 7 volts .
some test print
the copper color is very ruf . i think am gonna re print in black . i overpainted the copper whit black .:( not so nice .
I'm impressed with your skills you're using in this build. Nice work so far. I'm looking forward to seeing more.

i'm waiting for some connectors to connect the small volt regulator . cause the iotiny keeps warning low batterie . i will have them tomorow .so i can raise the voltage to 6 volt . hopes the iotiny dont give a warning low batt . i have these to connect the small regulator to the controllers .

hi
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.

hi all
big progress . all regulators are in place .and all works . lots of playing with RGB and led's
if you dont have room to place all next eachtother ..then place it ontop .
regulators ontop 6.50 volts each .
how the backside looks .

@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
