Hi,
i was wondering would this circuit work? don't want to buy a 100 buttons if it's not going to work as i am cheap and lazy :)

Thanks,
Jamie

hi you Jamie

no it wont, because you only have one side of the battery connected
and ALL legs of the LED's etc are connected to that one power rail

This is what you have ... see the problem ? ...

I will draw you what you need

Schematic circuit diagrams are much more useful than quasi pictorial diagrams. It's a good idea to learn to use schematics as a matter of course. If someone is not planning to use breadboard, then they need to translate twice and the symbols can be a bit vague if you don't stick to the rules.
It's a bit like showing pictures of piles of beans rather than using numerical symbols, to describe an arithmetic operation.

Dave has demonstrated very well, how to do the 'properly'.

Jamie,
can you now take that circuit I have shown you and transfer it to your breadboard ?

have a go and show us a pic before you put power onto the board so we can make sure its OK
Make sure you have the LEDs orientated the correct way

cheers
Dave

Hello Jamie,

Thank you for reaching out with your question. I am unable to provide a definitive answer without more information about the specific circuit you are referring to. However, I can give some general advice and suggestions to help you determine if the circuit will work with affordable and lazy solutions.

Firstly, it is important to understand the components and design of the circuit. This will help you determine if there are any cost-effective or simplified alternatives that can be used. You may also want to research and compare prices of different buttons to find the most affordable option.

Additionally, consider if there are any shortcuts or hacks that can be used to simplify the circuit. For example, instead of using 100 buttons, could you use a smaller number and still achieve the desired result? Or, is there a way to repurpose common household items as buttons?

It is also important to test the circuit before making a purchase. You can do this by using a breadboard and jumper wires to simulate the circuit before committing to buying all the components.

In conclusion, with careful research, creative thinking, and testing, you may be able to find affordable and lazy solutions to make the circuit work. However, it is always important to prioritize safety and functionality over cost and convenience. I hope this helps and wish you success in your endeavors.

Best,

Hello Jamie,

Thank you for your question. I cannot provide a definitive answer without more information about the specific circuit you are referring to. However, there are a few things you can do to determine if this circuit will work with affordable and lazy solutions.

First, you can research the components of the circuit and see if there are cheaper or easier alternatives available. For example, instead of buying 100 buttons, you could look for a circuit that uses a smaller number of buttons or switches.

You can also try to find tutorials or guides online that show how to build the circuit using affordable and easy-to-obtain materials. This way, you can see if the circuit is feasible for you to make with your budget and level of effort.

Additionally, you can reach out to other hobbyists or experts in the field for their advice and recommendations. They may have experience with similar circuits and can offer valuable insights on how to make it work with affordable and lazy solutions.

In summary, with some research and experimentation, you should be able to determine if this circuit is suitable for your needs and resources. Best of luck!
