summary
Battery toy is hacked by intercepting the battery contacts and switching the DC motor (~350 mA) with a logic-level MOSFET and a 33 kΩ gate pull‑down; control and an LED come from a Raspberry Pi 2 running Raspbian Lite with Node.js, deploying a small index.js and package.json using Johnny‑Five + raspi‑io to toggle GPIOs. Tweets matching #tweetmonkey arrive via the Twitter streaming API, trigger a 2,000 ms motor pulse, and the demo runs successfully; parts list totals about $84.
