Here is a bomb I made with working LCD Display and random number generator.

Attached is a list of links of what I bought.  Total cost (including batteries, case, glue, etc.) came out to be ~$115 bucks.


1. uC, the brains to the device: http://shop.moderndevice.com/products/rbbb-kit
2. LCD Display: http://shop.moderndevice.com/products/16-x-2-lcd-and-assembled-lcd117
3. Nichrome wire: http://unitednuclear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=16_17_69&products_id=167
4. Relay: http://search.digikey.com/scripts/DkSearch/dksus.dll?Detail&name=PB766-ND
5. Battery clip: http://www.sparkfun.com/products/9835    x2
6. Decent power cable: http://search.digikey.com/scripts/DkSearch/dksus.dll?Detail&name=AE1399-ND
7. Enclosure: any briefcase or anything you want from Goodwill
8. Epoxy: you can get this anywhere
9. Smoke bombs: http://www.amazon.com/Assorted-Color-Smoke-Balls-Case/dp/B000TJH2V2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1310078483&sr=8-1
10. Buzzer: http://search.digikey.com/scripts/DkSearch/dksus.dll?Detail&name=668-1036-ND

Good work.  I've been working with a friend to make one similar, with some additional complexities through Arduino (connect certain wires, enter a code, etc.)

Overall, nice work!

Did you do the code yourself?

I did actually do the code myself.  It was very similar to Java/C

The wiring was done with the help of my EE friend, as I wasn't very skilled with a solder and breadboard.
