    oscillator help

    Adam, it's not working for me. I can't see anything past page 15. The website is laid out much like the man's mind... erratically! Did you see a link to our discussion there? Thanks, Chris

    Drive two relays based on input voltage.

    I don't see any pull-ups in AK's schematic. An oversight? Chris

    Since Colin feels inconvenienced discussing things here I don't feel like sifting through his myriad of stuff either. Can you tell us if he included a link to our topic? Thanks, Chris

    Since Colin isn't going to do it will someone please post the link to where Colin posted this on his site? Chris

    Drive two relays based on input voltage.

    I like that idea but series Gate resistors will have to be added. No biggie though. Chris

    12V Programmable Relay - Help please :)

    What is the start current of your pumps? Chris

    Shot counter

    The Picaxe 08M2 is an 8pin microcontroller. http://www.picaxe.com/Hardware/PICAXE-Chips/PICAXE-08M2-microcontroller It can operate on a 3V button battery and directly drive your LEDs. The programming software is a free download. If you like I will draw the schematic and write the code. All you...

    Drive two relays based on input voltage.

    Marty tried that. The testing psychologist is now undergoing shock therapy. :) Chris

    Phone line (modular wire) wattage capacity

    Without a fuse all wire can burn if the source can supply enough current to do so. If it's being powered from an automobile battery I would definitely fuse it. Edit: A 1A fuse should work fine. You can buy In-Line fuse holders at your auto supply, Radio Shack ebay, etc. Chris

    Drive two relays based on input voltage.

    AnalogKid said: ↑ Until there is a less ambiguous description of what is going on, I'll stick with the 4040. Victor Arocho said: ↑ the port and stbd computers send the 5v to the sticks and receive the reference voltage to accelerate the throttle. I admire reading comprehension. I wish I had...

    Picaxe programming help

    Either it's defective or it's not a typical LDR. They come in many flavors but those measurements are not useful for your purposes. Since you're in the USA you can get damn near anything you want from China on ebay....cheap! Right now I can't do it but I'll measure the LDR that Picaxe supplied...

    Colin, you said that you posted your monologue on your website. Got the balls to provide us with a link? Chris

    Hey! I was going to say that but you headed me off at the pass! :p Chris

    Drive two relays based on input voltage.

    Ha, I read this a few times but it didn't come together until I replaced "and" with "by". Chris

    oscillator help

    Colin, my post did not address how this circuit or sinusoidal oscillators in general work. You seem to have missed or chose to ignore the point I was making. You don't have exclusive rights to disliking repeating one's self, so I will not do so either. I'm more than willing to debate any issue...

    Shot counter

    A Picaxe 08M2 (uC) Microcontroller would be a good choice because it can run on a 3V Button Battery. Any circuit you build around a uC is going to take up much less real estate. Chris

    Drive two relays based on input voltage.

    Yeah, a single SPDT relay could switch two solenoids. Disclaimer: Read my signature below. Your project more than qualifies entry into my "I'm not responsible for ANYTHING you do!". Chris

    Drive two relays based on input voltage.

    This is an easy job for a PIC. I highly recommend a Picaxe 08M2, 8 pin microcontroller. That said your description is not totally clear. It's always best protocol to fully describe your project. This way we can determine if there's a better way of accomplishing the same thing. For example, we...

    Damn! Talk about EYE TORTURE! :eek: I hope our younger members can see that print a whole lot better than me! o_O Chris
