    Anyone near Indiana?

    Oh, another hopper! Very good Steve. Yes, I wouldn't mind getting my hands on a good but used Oscope. I sold my old one for next to nothing when we moved. Well, if you are persuaded to venture this way, lunch is on me. Regards, John Ps: Vegemite is nasty

    That is strange. I would expect the 3.5v bulbs to just burn dimmer than the rest.

    Appropriate diode fo my circuit

    Long ago, Italian immigrants coming to USA, used to all have notes with instructions saying "To NY city" and upon reading their abbreviated papers at Ellis Island, they often registered their Name as ToNY. Off topic questions; geranium diodes are not stable enough to use? Are they now...

    Anyone near Indiana?

    I'm sure your a nice guy but if I have to drive 200 miles, you might have to share your ebay purchases with me. Lol. Yes, Indiana is more of a broom closet size state. If you want a little more elbow room, try on Alaska or Texas for size. I'm in Rochester Hills, MI. What country south of...

    :oops:It doesn't look like anything you can do to easily modify it. I'd send it back if I could.

    Anyone near Indiana?

    I'd love to meet you steve. But 200 miles is a little too far for a cup of coffee. Yet, much closer than Beijing and the Ronne ice shelf.

    USB signal generator device to stop the screen saver

    Sorry, John might be easier. Oh, missed the "no activity" part. But it may not be a requirement to make it work. The Ctrl key would work, but it may cause problems if shortcut keys are used. For example, if Esc or Tab key was pushed at same time. A unused function key or the PrtSc key might...

    USB signal generator device to stop the screen saver

    I'm with Gryd3. The simplest way is to turn off the screen save or sleep settings. Sometimes these settings are hidden under advanced settings. If that is not an option, You can salvage a mouse (as Lavaguava said) or keyboard controller and tap into it with a timer circuit.

    Appropriate diode fo my circuit

    Aside from zeners, what types of diodes would not work? The 1n4000 series is the only ones I'm familiar with. PS; I think of Tony as more of a Roman name. Unless your Tony Blair. Lol

    Adding "on" light to 240V thermostat

    That's true, but it depends on how its wired. I'm referring to the commonly wired split phase 240v circuit where 240v is derived from 2, 120v legs. If that's the case, the 2 wire 240v circuit requires a 2 pole gfci, and will trip if you try and add line to neutral load that draws >4ma.

    Adding "on" light to 240V thermostat

    Imo, if you don't even own the place, you have no right to alter premises wiring. Even if the owner says it's ok. You are altering a listed device and possibly opening yourself to liability. Another reason is, if you add a pilot light from the switchleg (load side of tstat) to neutral, you...
