Why Picaxe Is My Go-To Chip: Or, How to Build a Simple LED Prop

Published at : 23 Dec 2025

In this video, I’m tackling two things at once: building a simple LED prop for the upcoming Holiday Havoc: Magic and Mayhem 🎩✨ show on December 13th at the Farr Best Theater 🎭, and explaining why I’m such a fan of Picaxe chips 🛠️⚡ for my electronics projects.

This prop may look simple—it’s just an LED on a stick 💡—but it switches between solid and blinking modes with the press of a button 🔘. That’s where the Picaxe chip shines! 🌟 As I build the prop, I share three key reasons why Picaxe is my go-to choice for projects like this.

Whether you’re into DIY electronics 🛠️, theater magic 🎩, or just want to know why Picaxe chips deserve more love ❤️, this video is for you!

Plus, I’ll give you a sneak peek 👀 into the show, where you can see the prop in working. 🎟️ Grab your tickets now at...
