Spectacle Light Kit
The Spectacle Light Kit makes it easy to illuminate your next project at the push of a button! The Light Kit provides a simple, straightforward way to incorporate exact control over lighting in your next or current project. Inside each Spectacle Light Kit you will find all the boards required to create a lighting project (the Spectacle Director, Light, and Button Boards), as well as all the accessories needed to get you hooked up and shining!
We have written an in-depth User's Guide and Light Kit Hookup Guide to help direct you through each step of setting up this and any kit in the Spectacle product line. You will be surprised by how easy and quick it is to make yourself into a Spectacle!
Spectacle is a product ecosystem centered around a simple idea: creative people shouldn’t have to learn new skills to use electronics in their projects. You’ve spent years developing the skills you use, and SparkFun wants to recognize that and help you expand your creations to include electronics without requiring you to spend years learning about electronics and programming.

Core Skill: Programming
If a board needs code or communicates somehow, you're going to need to know how to program or interface with it. The programming skill is all about communication and code.
Skill Level: Noob - Programming will be limited to basic drag and drop interfaces like ModKit or Scratch. You won't be writing code, but you will still need to understand some basics of interfacing with hardware. If you?re just using a sensor, it's output is analog.
