    [woo] Does anyone know of this breakthrough technology ?

    Oh and I was trying to let him down gently :) There's a clip on YouTube where some guy is measuring the magnetic field or something like that of the consumer unit with his phone. I don't think he even knows what he is measuring. He then closes the door which is ummm metal and shows a reduction...

    I dropped them out of the boot and didn't notice they landed under the wheel, oh well never use them anyway. Adam

    [woo] Does anyone know of this breakthrough technology ?

    Hi Michael, nice photo by the way. Anyone you know? :) I very much doubt if this would work. I don't see how something so small could do anything to effect the extremely low impedance of the incoming mains supply. Do you really think this can reduce spikes and change the harmonic content and...

    Basic Electronics kit

    Hi Chopnhack. I just got selection of capacitors and resistors from amazon. Have a look they do different size kits. They also do a kit of semiconductors which includes transistors and a few 555 timers. Unfortunately I accidentally ran over the 555 timers in my car and now they don't work. :)...

    Switch Type

    You can call me Adam if you want. Arouse is so formal :)

    Does anyone know of a Good free EDA package

    Is that the one I recommended Dan? :) Adam

    Switch Type

    I think what's more important is matching the current handling capacity of the original switch. A good indicator might be to see what the fuse rating is for that circuit. Thanks Adam

    Hi Paul Adam

    Please help me identify this capacitor

    It looks like it is a B45 series and W = 2008. Thanks Adam

    Looking for wall adaptor power supply

    You said less than £70.00?? Adam

    Looking for wall adaptor power supply

    Hello will this fit the bill? http://www.amazon.co.uk/Adjustable-Regulated-Linear-Bench-Supply/dp/B0056BHI9O/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1406551823&sr=8-2&keywords=adjustable+power+supply If you want 5 V and 9 V then I am sure you could design a 5 V regulator to run from the power supply set at 9 V.

    Please help me identify this capacitor

    Also it's a Tantalum capacitor so you have to check on the package size. Tantalum capacitors come in packages in either dimension format or case size like A,B,C and D. Unfortunately you can get the same value of capacitance and the same voltage rating in different sizes so you need to check...

    Hey everybody!!

    This Website. Full of lots of good info. I might be a bit biased though. Joking aside why don't you have a look on Amazon they have lots of books for this sort of thing. Also discover circuits is a good resource for circuits. Adam

    V(rms) = V(ac) and V(ave) = V(dc), why?

    I can hear Steve cracking his knuckles right now. Come on Steve tell us about this. Adam

    V(rms) = V(ac) and V(ave) = V(dc), why?

    Yes correct as my diagram shows although wave shape could be better. Adam

    V(rms) = V(ac) and V(ave) = V(dc), why?

    Yeah ok you got me. I knew this just thought I would draw something to show what I meant. Should have guessed you would pick that up :) Adam

    My first circuit, some questions..

    Yep. Thanks Adam

    V(rms) = V(ac) and V(ave) = V(dc), why?

    Hi Kris what a great addition to my lame comments :) this is what I meant if I understand it correctly. Thanks Adam

    V(rms) = V(ac) and V(ave) = V(dc), why?

    The RMS of an AC sine wave is the DC equivalent voltage. This the DC voltage required across say a resistor that will produced the same amount of power as your sine wave does. So for a 1 Volt DC source with a load of 1R the resistor will dissipate 1 Watt of power. A sine wave is not DC so it...
