This looks like an awesome build! I want to make this for some friends as a belated housewarming gift.

I have a couple questions on the zapper side. First off, is there anything in the code, or otherwise that would make it so you couldn't use the 3.3v pro micro variant instead of the 5v? Did you just use the 5v because that's what you had on hand? I ask since that could eliminate any potential power issues from the lower voltage source. Second, since I am giving this to a friend, I am a little weary about using a lipo just because of how finicky they can be. Is there any reason you couldn't use a rechargeable li-ion like a cr2? Do you know if this will still work with adafruit charger you suggested? Thanks

Are there files to print my own 3d printed part?
Don't support thieves like ckliang who copied Helder's AIO to resell and is now cloning the mintyPi, support the original creators and not the thieves!

A link to the project box you used probably would be helpful, though, as it took me a long time to hunt down one that was the right size. I wasn't entirely sure what I was looking for since I've never used one before. :-P

Nice! I think you're the first one I've seen to post pictures of their own. :)
