I have tinkered with electronics ever since I was a kid. And this book brings me back to those days. The hacks in this have varying skill levels, which lets your knowledge, grow with the book.
Overall the book has a lot of great hacks. If you are a fish person or know some one who is you now have a use for that old monitor or Mac you have had laying around just turn it into a fish tank. I really enjoyed reading number 8 “How to Hack a Building-size Display”, I don’t think I will be don’t that any time soon but it was an awesome read. One of the best ones I think is number 5 “How to Hack a Furby (and Other Talking Toys)”; the sky is the limit on that one.
They did a great job of adding pictures threw out and reference material at every end of a project. They have a nice “Bill of Materials” so you know what to buy and Schematics when needed.
I really enjoyed this book it has a lot of information and is easy to follow, I would highly recommend it if you are interested in electronics.
