    Relay Priority

    Will the relays always be energized in sequence (i.e. If U2 is on then so is U1, and if U3 is on, the so are U1 and U2)? If so, the relay connections below should work:

    Any one thinking to buy a Mobility Scooter

    Way too many options. That's like asking what's the best automobile to buy. Help us narrow down your requirements.

    Convert 7 Segment LED Digital Clock to 3 Segment Representing Seconds, Minutes and Hours

    You could use multiplexers to sequentially connect one IR LED driver to the 8-segment LEDs, one segment at a time. That would require 6 digits x 8 segments = 48 mux switches. At the receiver end you would need 2 x 8 = 16 switches, plus logic to decode the signal. Of course you would have to...

    How about hot steam for unsoldering (more effective than heat gun?)

    Doubt that will heat the joint sufficiently to melt solder, and some of the steam will condense so you will end up with a wet board, likely not desirable.

    Query about the recharging of a lead acid battery

    Naw, that would be piling on. Just callin' it as I see it.

    Query about the recharging of a lead acid battery

    You are probably correct. :eek:

    Which resistors for crossover circuit ?

    Measure the physical size of ones that have failed and determine the wattage of similar sized resistors from common resistor data. Then pick ones with a least twice that wattage rating.

    I suggest you don't reply on this forum while you are on whatever you are on. :rolleyes:

    Query about the recharging of a lead acid battery

    You could use the 5V supply but, at a minimum, you would need to add a small series resistor (likely about 10 ohms) to limit the charge current to 100mA and charge for about 10 hours. Connect a multimeter in series to monitor the current.

    revolving chandelier with a way to plug in led strips

    How can it be wrong? What difference does it make which way it revolves?

    Old dvd home theatre SONY sr4w , optical input is Dolby digital 5.1?

    The specs say it can decode Dolbly Prologic II, which should give you 5.1 surround sound. You would need an optical sound source to check out the system before you buy.

    So are you happy with those results?

    Electrical circuit Analysis

    But that's a very tiny current, likely to the limits of the computing precision in the simulator. No matter how many digits the current is computed too, it may never be exactly zero.

    Electrical circuit Analysis

    Yes, you can do transient analysis with constant voltage supplies. Why would you expect other than 0 amps? Yes, that value is approaching the precision of the Spice calculations. What don't you understand? With zero voltage across the components (the same signal from both sources) you get...

    Electrical circuit Analysis

    Yes. Did you do the simulation to check?

    Electrical circuit Analysis

    There is a transient analysis specified, but both V1 and V2 are shown as being a constant +5V.

    Artificial Intelligence

    Reek? Really? What have I said that you consider a "theory"? To the contrary, you certainly have espoused a number of right-wing ones. Not even close. I went to the U of Wis. to study engineering and never met a far-left, or for that matter, far-right professor. But I love how you keep making...

    Artificial Intelligence

    So anyone that doesn't like the BIg Lie Trump has got Trump derangement syndrome? Sorry, but I can't get Trump out of my mind, since he's a far greater danger to our Democracy (being the first president that tried to overturn a valid election) then any of the world view organizations you listed...

    Artificial Intelligence

    Exactly like trying to argue with right-wing conspiracy fanatics, also amply illustrated here.
