+ This guide aims to explain in simple terms how to assemble the c3cat catear build kit.
+ To follow it, you need soldering equipment, a heatgun, a pair of striping pliers, catears as well as one of our build kits.
+ If you did not get a hold of one of those kits, take a look at our BOM.
+
+ The general project assembly looks like this where each of the components must be connected via soldering points. +

+ We recommend to use WLED as a firmware on all our catears. + It offers a wide range of features for display and animation and can be controlled comfortably from your smartphone. +
++ One of the most important steps is to electircally connect the microcontroller to the LED strip. + We will start with the LED side. +
+ + + + + + ++ The other side of the long cable now needs to be connected to the pluggable connector. +
++ Now you need to solder the other (female) part of the pluggable connector to your microcontroller. +
++ Congratulations! You now have a freely customizable pair of RGB catears :3 +
+
+ Don't feel pressured to wear cat ears – you're perfectly fine without them.
+ And remember: Trans rights are human rights.
