The Build:
i - The Pill:
I cut a piece of protoboard and rounded it using cutting pliers, Filed down the
edges to give it a perfect tight fit, laser pointer I used a couple of pliers to hold the board
and pressed it in , Notice the negative wire is sandwiched down on the pill
which will later be soldered to make ground contact.
