    Modifying automotive tachometer for fewer cylinders...

    Yes Mike! That’s the one I mentioned above but also discarded because of the 16 pins (at least I think there are 16 on the pictures) since that’s too many for the LM2917!!

    Another INVERTER we can talk about..

    Hi AG, This one is about US$ 95: http://www.elfa.se/elfa-bin/setpage.pl?http://www.elfa.se/elfa-bin/dyndok.pl?lang=en&dok=11186.htm I don’t think you could get the parts for that amount of money! What do you think?  ;)

    Remote Data Logger (GPRS Perhaps?)

    Hi finnpark, Welcome to our forum, A few questions; how far are the “sheds” located from your house? How many sensors per shed and how many sheds? Is it necessary to have continuous feed from the sensors or is it OK to have them switch on for a few seconds (to save energy) every hour for an...

    Modifying automotive tachometer for fewer cylinders...

    The IC seems to have 16 pins which exclude the in this kind of devices often used LM2917 which have only 14 pins if I remember correctly.  :-\

    Marantz: Please help me find Capacitors!!!???

    Hi cbass, Welcome to our forum. You don’t tell us where in the circuit the caps are located. The might be used for LF power stage or in the power supply circuit and could have different characteristics.

    Headlight Flasher

    It’s better to use a semiconductor switch for this; the halogen lamps (and the relay) will suffer badly if turned on and of repeatedly. If repeated very often it might be les harmful since the filament is still very hot for the next pulse. Just my two cents! ;)

    confused about voltage regulator spec

    There is at least one way to do this; reverse the polarity on the output! Example; put a charged capacitor the wrong way across the output! Use safety goggles for this one! 8)

    Download Elektor Journal Here...

    Hi nanop, I am sorry; I thought you meant the forum. I believe the download link is in Turkish (not that I can read it) and this specific link is removed (dead). If the link was healthy it would look like this:

    ISS108 diode information reqest

    Hi AG, Sure, I know that part pretty well but what software made the screen in the first place? Or, did you just find it on a website?  :D

    Care for Lead acid batteries

    I agree; normal charge is preferable to increase the life of the battery! Once in a while it might be a good idea to run a charge cycle on high at the same time as running a test of the UPS say every 6 month or so. This will also let you know when the capacity of the battery starts to...

    checking for proper earth grounding of wall outlets

    Yes we have that kind too but,…. that’s cheating!  ;D http://www.elfa.se/elfa-bin/dyndok.pl?lang=en&dok=2021555.htm?_76_458_64

    Circuit Diagram requiered

    Hi, I think you will have trouble finding a diagram for this PSU, it’s a military spec aircraft module. It’s very old but still Ericson is not in the habit of letting these schematics out to the public.

    Care for Lead acid batteries

    Hi indulis, De-ionized water is cheaper to produce and easier to find (any gas-station) and works fine but still nothing beats the real thing; distilled water! ;)

    Interfacing circuits to the PC

    Hi Jack, Well software might be visual basic if you are making your own code. I might also be some commercial software for controlling the outputs/inputs you need. Channels, the number of relays (example output device) or number of inputs from NTC, A/D converter or any other source you like to...

    A huge collection of books!!!

    Hi Jack, Yes, worked fine and high speed too! :D Got the “Elektor 1002 Schaltungen” 255Mb in just a few minutes! It’s now unzipped and works perfectly ! ;D Thanks again Jack!

    Inverter Generator

    Hi acdc, Sorry, not much to go on. The output from the generator might have noise which won’t be accepted by the input electronics. The surge at startup might stir up some EMF which could be lethal the electronics! As I said “too many unknowns in your equation to give a short or precise answer”!
