New to the whole pic thing. Got them blinking though. Here is my question what is the best pic chip for the job. 1. Lowest power consumption pic 2. Run 6 to 12 Leds 3. Work on battery's - Like 4 double AA's 4. Can run some sort of clock program that is user programmable to turn off and on at certain times. - Still trying to master the code on this one, also I will take interface Ideas on this one. Could it be possible to use jumper settings for this? Thanks for the input - a humble new guy.
