Re: HAVE YOU A MISTERY? SOLVED OR NOT?
a big slowdown for most people is the malicious processes that run on their computers. programs like "adobeARM" which seems to have no job at all but run delay cycles using up resources profile and tell on any text you may copy/paste. making the computer owner hate his "slow junk comp...

Re: Battling fruit flies and gnats
the bottle is the best trick I have seen. I suppose the bugs are attracted to the CO2 released by the fermentation process which is infused into emulsion of the vinegar slowly being released as evaporation splits molecules. same gas also released by humans exhaling, being the reason they follow peop...

Re: Solar panel charge monitor with auto shutoff
right, I always wanted to dig a big hole lay thick plastic insulator then a ground plate then layer gravel as a separator then dirt/water electrolyte. then positive plate, then cement pad and antenna. using a large enough hole and a big spark gap for overload protection it could in theory store ligh...

Re: Solar panel charge monitor with auto shutoff
yup, heat. ever notice when your cell phone gets to the end and needs a re-charge it gets hot? that heat is the loss most battery's give the heat off linearly as in a graph with a single straight diagonal line from min to max. but the Li-ion gives off its heat at the end or a curve or arc if picture...

Re: How can I stop the"boom"'BOOM", base noise ma
I know how to fix this problem! take a hammer and break spark plugs or an old crock-pot into pieces. once you have little 1/2 inch pieces of porcilin you will need a simple slingshot. on each pass pop a window for them, they will probably stop driving by. if not they will eventually have no windows ...

Re: Solar panel charge monitor with auto shutoff
not enough for my needs yet. need 6.5A minimum. but perhaps it could be used to charge a bank of batteries for intermittent use.. it may take a week or more to fully charge but then it would provide a invertible current.
cap banks may be the best answer there again to.

Re: More LED fun
caught something said by @burger about "solar battery already died" have you learned about getting over the solar hump of the 70s-80s? "batteries have memory", those charged by solar cells have low "instantaneous current" memories. the old way, you had to "cycle th...

Re: Solar panel charge monitor with auto shutoff
a very nice project sir, thanks for sharing. If I here feedback data on this project I might duplicate it. how strong of a 14v out put is it?
I mean could you run say a power inverter with it or many of them in configuration?

Re: PIR motion sensor circuits
good info there man, so they are mostly identical I use the bulky shack pir sensors all the time but I like the small one I wonder if it's current draw is the same and can be used with BS2 homework boards? i use them in my bugbots.

Re: Electronic projects using LEDs
ok so the connection is simple the solar cell connects one leg to the phone battery the other to a cds cell then to the other leg of the battery. this isolates the solar charging circuit. the can battery circuit connects the same way with a rectifier diode in series. this makes sure current only mov...
