Cheers!

For our unconventional switch, we decided to use two cans of soda to act as our switch. We thought it would be fun to light up an LED every time you “cheered” with a buddy, making any hang out that much more fun! The alligator clips are attached to each piece of tin foil on the respective can of soda, this made the transfer more conductive for better results. When the two cans of soda touch each other, the LED lights up! Then, when the two cans of soda are pulled away from each other, the LED turns off. There is not necessarily a practical purpose for this switch, it is used mostly for entertainment value and for enhancing cheering to be more eventful and momentous.

(5v – 3v) = 0.02A * R

2v = 0.02A * R

2v / 0.02A = R

R = 100Ω
