No electronic gadgets here. Although I have seen a Dremel electric carving tool and strobe lights. I like my Jack-O-Lanterns simple. I did not even use a pumpkin carving kit with the specialized tools. Just a pencil, sharp paring knife and a large metal spoon for carving out the insides. I got  a number of compliments on it. I was happy with it. It was inspired by the Pumpkin King from the Tim Burton movie, The Nightmare Before Christmas.
