    replicating gun recoil

    Hop, I must be loosing it because some of your description seems to defy Newton's law of every action has an equal and opposite reaction. As far as I know the laws of action-reaction hold true in zero atmosphere, IE does not need expanding gases to satisfy this law. A blank round is nearly...

    major stress of railway track

    When I read Hop's reply I had visions of the OP prone on the ground with guns pointed at him by local and railroad police. This scene to be followed by arrest and interrogation by FBI, Homeland Security, TSA and a myriad of shadow agencies. Possibly MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Driving) and the...

    Yes Bob, that's a very good point that I should have pointed out a long time ago. Irish Luck's LDR is high side connected. His code "If B0 >50" could quite possibly be true with ambient room light. After all B0 would be only .98V with Vref = +5Vdd. Ambient light could quite possibly be exceeding...

    Rotary Switch Source

    Often we get requests for Rotary Switches. So when one of my favorite sources, they're just up the road from me, added these to their product line I thought I'd post it here. Chris http://www.mpja.com/12-21-15.asp?r=306686&s=9

    Uh yeah but considering who they were begetting with it would get you some serious jail time these days! :eek: Chris

    I forgot to mention that the distance between your light source and the LDR should be the same distance that your finished project will be. Chris

    First off you must understand that you started this thread over a month ago with long periods of absence between posts. While your doing whatever you do we're involved in other topics. When you post again it's catch-up time for us because it's not our project. OK, before you do anything I want...

    Drive two relays based on input voltage.

    Ah, I see the pullups finally made it to the train. :) Chris

    Yes, and when I was a young lad I thought I had discovered sex! I was absolutely positive that what I was experiencing had never been experienced before....ever! Fortunate for me the internet didn't exist then, for I may have announced my discovery to the entire world too!:p Chris

    Newb looking for help: Connecting phone to old speakers [pictures included]

    Ha! My eyes saw what I expected to see. Not what you posted. So does this mean that reverse dyslexia is a good thing? BTW: No argument there. They're a great robust connector. Merry Christmas, Chris

    Damn! After reading that self aggrandizing tripe it's no wonder why he finds it beneath his station to discuss anything with us. We're mere mortals! Merry Christmas Chris

    Adam, as I see it EP is a repository of knowledge freely given by its entire membership. Colin on the other hand is a one man show. That could be tolerable if the "show" was playing here on EP...but it isn't. Chris

    Lcd screen duplication

    Ha, I searched for a datasheet, pinout and or schematic but nada. The site you posted wants me to join to download the datasheet. Not happening. I get enough junk mail. Chris

    Help with rotary switch adaptor

    Yes, and there should be a special torture developed for manufacturers that make the center pin negative. My personal favorite would be a nail gun applied to the family jewels! Chris

    Last night that didn't work at all. In fact I'm amazed that I had the wherewithal to delete the majority of my last post! If this thread continues I don't know if Colin is going to hang back in the shadows or not but I do know that whether it's here or in another topic he is going to continue...

    In lieu of electrical contact cleaner you can clean electrical contacts with Isopropyl Alcohol applied with a QTip. It is my personal opinion that the RCA Plug / Connector system is the worst connector ever made. The plug being it's weakest point. They were developed in the 1940's as a smaller...

    Adam, I thought I deleted that image-less screen shot. Actually it wasn't a screen shot but that's what I should have done. No matter though because I've had it up to my keester with him, his website and anything he posts. All I want is for him to stay the hell out of my way! He has his own...

    This is what I see on page 15. http://www.talkingelectronics.com/te_interactive_index.html Edit: I just posted this and clicked the link I included but it didn't take me to page 15. I've had it. That place is far to irritating for my disposition. Chris

    Shot counter

    A few questions: Does this mean that the OEM design employs switch contacts in conjunction with the trigger? What's the Lipo's voltage? Can we see some photos, product links, owners manual data? Chris
