    Newbie Questions - sequential led lights

    Hello All, So I want to make led lights flash in sequence and go back and forth. Think Kitt on Night Rider or, really, Cylons. I know there are kits to do that but I'd rather learn. I guess my first question is "Is there a better way to refer to this kind of circuit than Flashy Sequential Led...

    Beginner Amp Hour Question.

    Thank you all. As I was looking into this I saw a lot of what I can only guess was marketing. Listing things in different units and so forth to confuse people I guess. I'll have to keep digging. thanks!

    Beginner Amp Hour Question.

    Hello all, I'm trying to understand amp hours in order to get a battery for my CPAP for off grip camping. I want to make sure I'm doing this properly. I have a CPAP that draws, from a chart, 3.49 amps at 12v. (The chart says "Current draw @12V DC (amps)). So I found a 250W solar rechargeable...

    AWG?

    So I guess more background info is needed. I'm fixing the commo system for a t-34 tank. However, this system is part of an AN-VIC-1. It has an AM-1780 internal com base. The headsets are from the early 80's or late 70's. They wires are all starting to fray and stuff. The system runs off 24V dc...

    AWG?

    So it's a tad more complex than that. I'm rewiring H-161U headsets for a tank. I cut that wire myself to figure out the size. The strands without the shielding is a tad under .5mm. I'll try to get a pic.

    AWG?

    So I need to get some wire but now I'm confused. I know I need stranded wire. If I need 18 AWG wire, do they mean each strand is 18 AWG or the whole set of strands together is 18 AWG? I'm trying to determine the AWG of this wire. It's a tad over 1mm with the jacket. I don't have a good...
