[Noisebridge-discuss] LED chasers

[Tracy Jacobs]

I  have used this kit from All Electronics, it's very cheap and works  
well, just add some wires between the led's and the board.  Also  
Velleman makes some kits that could make longer strings of  
sequentially flashing leds.  Al Lashers sells some of them, they are  
also pretty cheap.
