The Teeces V3 Dome Lighting System was developed by JoyMonkey and it is the most common used Light System for the Domelogics.
It’s an Arduino based system using Max7219CNG ICs to trigger 5 arrays of LEDs.
They run their own sketch but can be controlled with a Marcduino.

The successor of the Teeces is the R-Series Logiuc Engine which uses RGB Leds and a fibre optic cable for illumination.

The Teeces consists of 5 PCBs.
The Rear Logic Display (RLD), 2 Front Logic Displays (FLD) and 2 Processor State Indicators (PSI).
They build a “chain” controlled by the Arduino sitting on the RLD who provides the LEDs with light pattern signals.

Teeces Kit
RLDs are the biggest PCBs
FLDs are the small square PCBs
PSIs are the round PCBs

You can buy a soldered Kit or make your own.
If you want to make your own use this the component list:

Follow the Teeces soldering tutorial for soldering your own Teeces.
