Damn you're good at this!
Can you suggest a starter beginners noob-friendly DIY project I can work on?

Until ghpk responds, take a look at the arduino platform!

 

[ghpk]

he he x720, arduino is one thing I am yet to work on, I've done PIC based stuff but havent tried arduino based.

Yashleo: can you specify what kinda stuff you want to do, Home or car or anything specific which you want to service/repair.

Before being crazy about led, i suggest you read this.
LED Lights May Damage Eyes | LEDs

Stop our obsession or be blinded for the rest of your life. Do you wear glasses?

warthog I used first LED around 30 years back, so if by now I don't know how handle them, I would have suffered from
eye issues already.
Yes, I agree fully agree that you need to be careful not to look into it directly, and especially the High Brightness ones which
are getting widely available now.

Lastly, yes I wear specs since my childhood.

@gphk

Heh. For someone familiar with pic, arduino should be child's play

I was thinking of buying a PIC development board from ebay, any suggestions on other online stores?

 

[volcano619]

Make one yourself..seriously its way too simple...the PCB design is already given on internet..search PICDEM FSUSB BOARD...

@x720
arduino and PIC are different...hell even Arduino and AVR are different...
