Up to now, only works with LED strip APA102

You need: ARDUINO (UNO, MEGA or NANO), Led Strip APA102 (5V) SENSOR HALL, MAGNET, POWER BANK 5V, MAGNET AND WIRES AND CONNECTOR (AS YOU WISH).

The connections are explained in the picture. Basically is:

SCK and MOSI (arduino) to C and D (led strip) respectively

D2 (arduino) to signal Hall Sensor.

If you select the Bluetooth option: Rx, Tx (arduino) to Tx, Rx (HC06) and A2 (arduino) to RESET PIN (arduino)

I dont try this version boards yet, check diagrams!!

Step 4: FIX IN YOUR WHEEL BIKE

You must fix on Wheel Hub.

Make a support with cardboard or 3D printing and fix it with zip ties. The sensor and strip led could be fixed by adhesive tape (transparent over leds) Fix magnet on fork with hot melt and adhesive tape. (Dispose in the way that it was detected by sensor)
