    Help regarding possibility and planning

    I found adafruit project while researching this a bit but it was discontinued so I moved on. Luckily the whole project is open source so I found this https://learn.adafruit.com/ice-tube-clock-kit/downloads there is also a detailed parts list and instructions. I need to know how to load the...

    Help regarding possibility and planning

    Thank you both very much for your reply. I think it would be the simplest if I go for this: http://ussr-tubes.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=98_170&products_id=1150 I wasn't planning on using seconds as well but I don't mind. I can probably do the format like this XX-XX-XX since it's...

    Help regarding possibility and planning

    Alright, I didn't have much knowledge about what you are saying here, but I took a look at it. I assume you're talking about an inverter (I'm not trying to sound pompous by correcting you, just need to be sure we are talking about the same thing.) The wiki page I found talks about AC to DC...

    Help regarding possibility and planning

    Sorry about this, intentions over text can be difficult. I have a 60W soldering iron with a basic pointed tip and a couple of different tweezers. I have a magnifying glass around but without a light and stand... I was reserving this for the part after I figured out what parts I needed. So, I...

    Bump. Like said before, doesn't have to be/look like the one I linked to. I am more than willing to use modules that already exist for the purpose of keeping time or other aspects of this project. -pusur

    Help regarding possibility and planning

    I came over this: https://www.tindie.com/products/akafugu/vfd-modular-clock-iv-18-smt-with-gps/ So this for me seems awesome, but it costs more than a pretty penny, so I wondered if this was possible to build for myself? It doesn't have to look like this, but I really like all these tube clocks...

    Motor circuitry and parts help

    I feel I am confident in making the circuit as long as I understand the components involved which I will read about if there are unfamiliar stuff. The problem is the reverse aspect of it all. And LiPO batteries; I'm very sceptic to these as they come with a long long list of precautions when...

    Motor circuitry and parts help

    I am mounting this on a cart that will push and pull respectively according to what I need. In my mind, everything would be powered by the batteries, no high voltage anything. As for the commercial modules, it does depend on what you mean by commercially available and how sort of "built" it is...

    Motor circuitry and parts help

    Hello. I have a project in mind where I need a remote controlled switch (any kind, IR, radio etc) to control one motor that goes both backwards and forwards. I have an engine in mind, it reverses its direction by changing the pole of the power source around. I plan to power this with batteries...
