I am a firm believer in not reinventing the wheel- if there’s already a tool, circuit, or part out there that I can integrate into my projects, I’d much rather buy it than spend the time and material costs to try and arrive at the same solution someone else has already found. Maybe this approach is why the Touch Sensor Light Controller jumped out at me, offering a quick and affordable plug-and-play solution to DIY dimmable lighting.
The Touch Sensor Controller is perfect for adding an odd touch control to your lighting project, letting you turn just about anything conductive into a dimmable input device. The board also includes some safety features such as a 0.75A fuse and reverse polarity protection up to 30V. It is as clean and simple as PCBs come- with clear silkscreening, openly-shared documentation, and quick-connect terminals, integrating this PCB into your lighting projects is fast and easy.
This board comes to us from BlinkinLabs, which is based in Amsterdam, Netherlands. They have a huge shop with many products for LED work, including some incredibly helpful LED strip repair boards. Throw some of these dimming light controllers and some of their other products in your cart and get your next light show on the road!
