First I found an excellent tutorial on how to program ATTiny45’s.
They are cheap and with a little luck I might even be able to move my code to an ATtiny13, cheaper 🙂
Then pure greatness struck with the whole 1 line of audio-generating struck. Loads of inspiration there.
I now have a small program that compiles to 930 bytes (room for optimization there is) that plays loads of different sounds.
The volume of the sound is not that loud. But with a pair of easy to drive speakers it will be enough for most environments.
With real prices on everything but the solar panels I’m up to 35 SEK.
I’m sure you can use the ADC for some added phun…
