🔰🔰🔰 Beginner’s Advice 🔰🔰🔰
Start simple!
Choose a Car with clear headlights, get yourself 2x batteries, a Switch, Cable, and 2x WHITE LEDs, WITHOUT any Resistors.
(Btw it doesn’t hurt to buy 4 batteries and at least 4 switches… I speak from experience...)
Don't be scared to fail, you probably will. I can tell that I did many times ;D
With every fail there is a lesson to learn, you can improve yourself while solving it. Win-Win.
Just start and have fun!

⚠️⚠️⚠️Trouble Shooting/FAQ:⚠️⚠️⚠️
#1 “My LEDs are flimmering” 👉 Check wobble contact on battery. Tighten the connections, make sure to stretch hard on electrical tape while attaching. INCREASE CONTACT AREA like shown in 05:27. If there isn’t a loose contact, check other contacts on switch, LEDs and Resistors.
#2 “Red LEDs are much brighter than white LEDs” 👉 Increase Resistor on Red LEDs. Check if any other Resistors are correctly selected according to the formula, no problem if values are a bit higher. Check Data on Threshold Voltage (Red usually ~2V, White, Violett, Blue ~3V).
#3 “Nothing works :(” 👉 Check all connections on any place if they are soldered correctly. Check if everything is connected like in the circuit diagram 09:44. Check Battery.
#4 “Only one LED is dark/doesn’t work” 👉 Maybe you’ve successfully cooked a LED. Check Wire Connection to this LED.
#5 “Battery gets hot” 👉 Immediately switch it off like it’s hot and check for loose contact on the battery, either at the outer connections or in between both battery’s. See #1
#6 General Advice: Make sure that everything is isolated. You can use heat-shrinking tube, plastic sheets, electrical/normal tape or enamel paint to seal it.
#7 “When I switch my setup on, it works fine for a few minutes, then everything gets darker and darker” 👉 A) Maybe your battery is drained or you have damaged it mid installation by accidentally short-circuiting it.
👉 B) You have a high current flowing (which can damage/drain the battery quickly) because of too low Resistors-Values. - Increase them accordingly to the formula and go to #2.
👉 C) I installed 10 LEDs in total, which I find is not easy to handle for the battery. Either remove LEDs or increase some resistors to cope with less current at the cost of less brightness. Alternatively, install an external battery like shown in 11:39.
#8 “Switch doesn’t work?” 👉 Make sure to wire it correctly: If there are 3 pins: Use the middle one and one from the outside. (If you choose both outer pins, it won’t work)

➡️ Why is this video description labeled with "Advertisement/Werbung"?
I don't make advertisement for Hot Wheels, other diecast brands or for tool brands, which you may see in this video. I'm not sponsored by any of these brands.
However here in Germany I have to label videos as advertisement, if I show products or brands (like the Hot Wheels Logo on the blister card for example), even if I bought those cars and tools all by myself.
If I get sponsored by someone, I will let you know in this video for sure!
