I was wondering if anyone can help me out.

Due to my own … lack of dexterity and misfortune I am in a situation where I have to figure out a standalone solution for my thrower’s bargraph.

Can anyone point me in the direction of a standalone, solution? Maybe something that just cycles on a loop?

My Arduino programing skills just aren’t up to this one right now and I am willing to ask for help from people smarter than me.

Any assistance is appreciated.

You could buy one of Jupiter Electronics’ Trap [bar graph](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/bar-graph) kits and use that as a stand-alone thrower bargraph?

Here’s my code that uses a SX1509 with an arduino to display the bargraph. Has an idle sequence, and firing sequence
