Equipping your workbench for beginner electronics (Arduino)
Are you learning Arduino or how to solder electronics? I have compiled a list of items that I have personally found useful when I received an Arduino Uno kit for Christmas and started learning how to make things with it.
Lighting
You’ll want a couple of bright lights to help you see all the small components. If you don’t already have a desk light handy I found these two lights to be useful and inexpensive.

Control LED light color via an Arduino and an iPhone over BLE
This tutorial will show you how to control an RGB LED via an Arduino and an iOS device. It will utilize the LightShow app which lets you set a single color or create a light show with a sequence of colors.
If you want to control a Light Strip check out this tutorial instead.
Materials: Common Cathode RGB LED
3 x 220-ohm resistors
nRF8001 BLE board
Arduino Uno

Create your own LED light show with an Arduino and an iPhone
This tutorial will show you how to control an analog RGB LED light strip via an Arduino and an iOS device. It will use the LightShow app which lets you set a single color or create a light show with a sequence of colors.
Materials:
Analog SMD RGB LED Strip 3 x N-channel power MOSFET 12V power supply DC Barrel Jack Adapter nRF8001 BLE board Arduino Uno iOS device LightShow App Step 1: Attach the light strip Use a power transistor such as a N-Channel MOSFET between the Arduino and the light strip.
