A
• Switch the light sensor mode to DARK to
create an alarm that sounds when it is
dark. Where could an alarm like this
be useful?
• If your alarm didn't sound reliably, try
adjusting the sensitivity of the light sensor.
• Adjust the speed of the pulse Bit to change
how fast the alarm sounds. What setting
do you think makes the best alarm?
• Try it in your desk drawer, locker, or
under your backpack.
• Put it on the windowsill as a
wake-up alarm.
• Use it to prank someone when they turn
out the lights.
• Snap on a DC motor and sign with a
scary monster on it.
• Amplify the sound (try using a paper cup
or cone).
• Add lights.
