Hi all,
Althought I'm a Software Engineer for the last 10y, I'm completely new to electronics and I was wondering if you could help me with an easy project.
I want to add my cabinet a magnetic sensor that would light up a led, I've been reading about this a bit and i'm a bit confused.
What materials exactly do I need to get?
1. Battery case that contains 4 AA batteries as each one is 1.5v
2. Reed switch
3. 5v Led Strip
Is that it? am I missing something? what should I look for exactly?
