Makes all the hippies happy! Love it!!! Yea we’re not supposed to damage trees etc. I’m putting out a bird house cache soon and was wondering what to use.
I would like to know more about this set up... I'm not overly savvy on the electro type, but this would be worth trying with the proper guidance. Thanks!
I fear this is too complicated, I mean I like the challenge and concept but if there’s not step by stem instructions on the cache page some cachers may get frustrated, and if the wrong person comes along they may be tempted to break into the box to get to the cache container inside, also I’d highly suggest covering the electronics, wiring so cachers won’t be at risk of damaging it
Hey buddy, Thanks for the interest! I used the "5-pin stand-alone capacative sensor" from AdaFruit. I know I could have used the pins on the Arduino, but I had the sensor and was trying to learn more about it. Very easy to use by the way. One potentially limiting factor is that the sensor only reads one input at a time.
Have you published the cache yet? I can't seem to find it on geocaching.com.... would like to come and find it, if only I knew where it is located. GC number please.....
That is so devious. The combo lock is an evil red herring. Well done !
This must be one of the most awesome caches I've ever seen. Really nice work!
Truly brilliant work!
That is absolute genius.
This is so cool! I wish I saw a cache like this on a hunt
Woaa! Nice. I love the decoy lock on the outside 😉
Amazing work

Excellent Gadget Cache. Thank you for sharing.
truly amazing
My geo-spidy senses told me that the padlock was a decoy. Cool cache. Love it.
That was ridiculously cool.
Amazballs
Awesome cache.

I like that one and I could like ask your copy for sketch and code please.
Amazing!!!!!
Where did you find a 3 color lcd ?
But how is the maintance and how does it work in winter?
How's the cache doing? How many Fave points?
Nice work! What is the GC code?
Pretty amazing!!!!!! What is that noise in the back? Ducks? Or is it the cache??
Pretty sure that was the motorized auto-focus camera he was using. 😉
WHERE IS THIS?!?!?!?!
what in the world is that constant noise? great cache by the way!
I had a pretty awful DSLR camera at the time. That noise is it’s attempt to stay focused.
Hey Nick - Great Cache! Thumbs up!
How did you realize the capacitive touch? Just with the arduino or did you use some circuit?

Can you do a how to on this one?
Yeah. I think I could manage that.
wow what a cache !! enough to piss me off hhahahah but i love it :)

kf4foy, thanks for your interest. GC71H69 is what you are looking for.
Got it now, thanks for the reply. Have added it to my list for next time I get to FL.
What's the GC code
