Local indie artist and Pololu employee Tracey, intent on reviving her programming skills and exploring her budding interest in electronics, shed some light on her creative personality by making an LED banner for her band, Hope’s Edge. The banner is a briefcase-sized container that uses an addressable LED strip to shine through a stencil of the band’s logo in a wave of brilliantly changing colors. The stencil and the rest of the panels in the container are made from 1/16" black ABS, all of which were cut with our custom laser cutting service, and a sheet of gift-wrap tissue paper is taped to the inside of the front panel to act as a diffuser. The banner runs off of a 5V wall wart, which is boosted to 9V to power an Arduino Uno that runs Ben’s Christmas light LED code.

PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) is a widely used thermoplastic polymer that finds extensive applications in the manufacturing of cables due to its cost-effectiveness and various desirable properties. Here's an overview of PVC as a cable material:
### Properties of PVC Cable Material:
1. **Durability**: PVC cables are resistant to wear and tear, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.
2. **Flame Retardancy**: PVC has good flame retardant properties, which means it does not easily catch fire and will self-extinguish once removed from a source of ignition.
3. **Chemical Resistance**: PVC is resistant to many chemicals, oils, and acids, providing protection against environmental damage.
4. **Flexibility**: Depending on the formulation, PVC can be made flexible or rigid, making it suitable for various applications.
5. **Cost-Effective**: PVC is relatively inexpensive compared to other cable insulation materials like TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomers) or XLPE (Cross-linked Polyethylene).
### Applications:
- **Domestic Wiring**: PVC-insulated wires are commonly used in residential wiring due to their safety and durability.
- **Telecommunications Cables**: PVC is often used in telecommunications cables for its flexibility and resistance to moisture.
- **Automotive Wiring**: Due to its flexibility and chemical resistance, PVC is used in automotive wiring harnesses.
- **Industrial Applications**: PVC cables are also used in industrial settings where they need to withstand harsh conditions.
