Travel Menorah


Since Chanukah is late this year, December 21st-28th, we needed a travel Menorah. Lighting candles on a train did not seem like a good idea, so thanks to Evil Mad Science, I just finished an LED Menorah kit.

There is a little push button switch to tell it which day is being celebrated, then it lights each LED in turn.

(And yes, I have recalculated the sunset times for each of the cities we will be in.)

I feel like a bad EE, in that this is the first time I have touched my soldering iron in years. But my skills proved good enough to assemble this simple kit.
