    Anyone feel like helping a complete idiot?

    Hi Edy. The mode you are talking about is dot mode. When the next level is triggered the next motor would turn on and the previous motor would turn off. This is what you want it to do. Thanks Adam

    Have a look at this IC. It has LEDs on the output at the moment but that could be modified for motors. It has bar and dot modes also. This might work? Adam http://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/lm3914.pdf

    Hi Edy So a different point on the strip will turn on one motor. And another point in the pot will turn on another motor. Do you want the motors to turn off as you go up the POT or stay on? Adam

    No 1.6 might be too big also. It is better to use some software if you have it. Adam

    Hello guys. I suppose I'll start the ball rolling then. Can the unit be taken apart easily and some nice close up pictures taken of the inside, showing any circuit boards. If the PCBs can be removed without damage a picture of the other side would also be a good idea. Thanks Adam

    Hello everybody

    Hello Ping Pong Lady It depends on what your daughter is using the batteries for. One way you could prove is to both use the same piece of equipment and you use some better batteries and your daughter use the cheap ones. See who lasts the longest. Thanks Adam
