10″ subs + my pc’s cold cathodes + this =

really obnoxious and definitely illegal car under lighting.

i would _never_ use wire that thin for mains power.

now i know someone’s going to say “but if the lights use x many watts, then u only need wire thats blah blah blah gauge”. still, safety first.

This needs to be combined with the hack below :)

Sound activated smell and lights in the bathroom.

yeah, the gauge of that wire kinda frightens me, (well the whole project kinda gives me the willies) but it is a quick and dirty hack that has some semi decent results, lets pray to god this guy does not plan on chaining together 10 more strands to this circuit…

Other than the scarily thin wire he’s using for mains, another thing missing from this project is a fuse…

I have a setup like this running off my computer (via parallel) right now. Using palace-dci software that runs different relays based on frequency, resulting cool displays (different lights flashing differently to the music). Though, I haven’t upgraded to SSRs yet so its loud as hell.

I’m looking into porting Palace to jack, but don’t know jack ;) about linux audio devel. Doesn’t look too hard if anybody wants to give it a go. (I’m riddled w/exams so don’t have much time right now.)

Christmas lights are required to have fuses in the plug. If you are talking about a pre-relay fuse then yeah, it’s missing. But the circuit has one built in with the lights.

can someone recommend me a book or something to learn about this stuff?
