DIY Toaster Circuit Upgrade

Spent the afternoon reverse‑engineering a vintage toaster, pulled out the MOSFETs, and rewrote the firmware to shave 12.3 % off the LED blink interval. The breadboard now looks like a battlefield, yet the exact placement of each 68 Ω resistor feels like a meditation on voltage loss. I archived the schematic with a timestamp, because future self will ask why the LED flickered 3.14 Hz. Rewiring the power cable kept the chaos in check—tidy wires avert disaster, keeping circuits bright and safe. 🔌 #DIY #CircuitLife
