Funky DIY Holiday Kits

Celebrate Chanuka or the Yuletide with these recycled LED motherboard kits.

Motherboard Menorah

Our Motherboard Menorah is lit by eight red LEDs and an LED shamas (the head, um, diode). Configure the lights for each day of Chanuka with a 9-bit DIP switch, just as the ancients set their dot-matrix printers for double-spacing. Made from two interlocking printed circuit boards that mount atop a standard 9V battery for ballast, you can set this menorah anywhere to share the chag sameach with friends, neighbors, and even people who shouldn't be allowed to play with matches.

Motherboard Christmas Tree

Our Motherboard Christmas Tree is lit by 16 red LEDs which blink in a festive holiday cheery sort of way. Made from two interlocking printed circuit boards that mount atop a standard 9V battery for ballast, you can set your Motherboard Christmas Tree anywhere you want, except, apparently the Capitol Rotunda in Washington State.
