ʻO ka ʻokoʻa ma waena o kahipihi kaomi ʻelua-pinea me kahipihi kaomi ʻehā-pineaia i loko o ka helu o nā pine a me kā lākou mau hana.
I ka hapanui o nā hihia, hoʻohana ʻia kahi pihi paʻi ʻehā-pine no nā pihi paʻi i hoʻomālamalama ʻia a i ʻole nā pihi paʻi multi-contact. Hoʻohana pinepine ʻia nā pine keu i loko o kahi pihi ʻehā-pine no ka hoʻā ʻana i kahi kukui LED a i ʻole ka hoʻomalu ʻana i kahi hoʻonohonoho hou o nā pilina kuapo. No ka hoʻokaʻawale ʻana inā no ka hoʻā ʻana i kahi LED a i ʻole ka hoʻomalu ʻana i nā pilina hou aʻe nā pine, hiki iā ʻoe ke nānā i ke ʻano o ke pihi e ʻike inā he kukui kona a i ʻole e nānā i nā māka ma ka ʻaoʻao o nā pine (nā pine i kapa ʻia me "-" a me "+" no ka mana LED, aʻo nā mea ʻē aʻe no nā pilina hou aʻe).
Aia kekahi mau ʻano pihi kaomi ʻē aʻe me nā hana like ʻole. Eia kekahi laʻana:
a. Pihi kaomi ʻekolu-pine: Loaʻa i kēia ʻano pihi hoʻokahi pine maʻamau, hoʻokahi pine pani maʻamau, a hoʻokahi pine hāmama maʻamau. Ke hoʻohui ʻoe i nā uea i ka pine maʻamau a me ka pine hāmama maʻamau, e pani maʻamau ʻia ke pihi a e pili ke kaomi ʻia. Ke hoʻohui ʻoe i nā uea i ka pine maʻamau a me ka pine pani maʻamau, e wehe maʻamau ʻia ke pihi a e uhaki i ka pili ke kaomi ʻia.
b. Pihi kaomi ʻeono-pineʻO kēia ke ʻano he pihi pālua hana ʻekolu-pine. Hāʻawi nā pine keu i nā koho hoʻomalu hou aʻe a i ʻole nā hiki ke hoʻopili. ʻO kekahi hiʻohiʻona ʻē aʻehe pihi ʻelua-pine me kahi kukui i hoʻomālamalama ʻia a me nā pilina mana hou aʻe.
c. Pihi kaomi ʻelima-pineʻO ka maʻamau, ʻo kahi pihi ʻelima-pine he pihi ʻekolu-pine me ka LED.
ʻOiaʻiʻo, he nui nā ʻano like ʻole a me nā ʻano pihi i loaʻa. Inā makemake ʻoe e aʻo hou aku, e ʻoluʻolu e leka uila maikāhea iā mā˚ouma ke kaomi ʻana ma aneʻi. Mahalo no kou nānā ʻana!
