What is it?

This board is a Christmas Tree shaped Advent Calendar with LEDs to mark the days that have passed and count the days until Christmas! This board is designed by Alex Grede

I have some spare boards because I wanted to replicate this project and I am selling them at cost price for other people who might want to make the same project.

There is an option to include all the parts needed to assemble the board and make it work, but you can find these parts online very easily. Please refer to the documentation.

What makes it special?

This board is the perfect ornament even if it is not powered on because it is shaped like a Christmas Tree and it also has a hole at the top in case you want to hang it anywhere! Just connect 5V through the DC barrel connector in the back of the PCB and it is ready to go.

It has 25 LEDs and every time you press the button one of them lights up. There is a combination of 24 red and blue LEDs and at the top, the star, a white LED lights up meaning that Christmas has arrived!

So thanks to this little board, we can know how many days are left until Christmas to receive our gifts!
