Firetruck mod

Not quite done yet, but a (mostly done) quick status of my fire truck project.




Finished project:





Inspired by a project my dad made for me as a kid.



Features: 6 buttons that play different sounds from a usb powered speaker

8 leds in the top that go in a "circular" pattern

5 leds in the ceiling

7 leds on the dashboard

real ignition key that actually turns it on (plays engine start-up noise when its turned on)



Todo: fix dashboard leds

clean up wires

add door to the back for "fixing" access

add charging usb port into the gas tank port

fix issue where "too loud" sounds cause a voltage drop and reboot the esp
