You cannot have more than one loop function.
Your conditional i should be i2.
You're both correct. Any thoughts on the using obsolete binding at 'i' " error? I fixed the previous mistake but I still receive the error.
Revised Sketch:

I'm attempting to connect and test a project scheduled to be completed tomorrow but there were power supply issues so the setup needed to be switched to battery power and utilize an on/off switch.
If successful, it should look very interesting.
Thanks for the help! Keep it coming!
