    Tamperproof sink

    Norway, so no worse off on the delivery, I know that, but it's still a month :P. Critical being things that have to do with mains power, battery cells, things where the potential for damage is large and mostly controlled by quality. Even though many li-ion cells from China are probably fine, I'd...

    Tamperproof sink

    You'd think, right? I've been looking through every online shop I can think of for this, nothing locally. You do get the mechanical timer switches, looks like kitchen timers, and the electronic kind. Besides both of them being more expensive than importing, the electronic kind will likely...

    Tamperproof sink

    Apologies for getting back so late. I have some experience with electronics, and I find the 555 timer to be versatile, but perhaps being a bit "strict" it dissipates 3mA. This is "much" more than I could do with a modified Arduino. (Which I'd really like to avoid this time around) I always...

    Tamperproof sink

    Hello all. I'm hoping you'll find this backstory somewhat amusing, and I'm including it for the purpose of its entertainment quality and to see if anyone has any better ideas. For context, please view this...

    Large project, compatibility and coding help needed

    Alright, nobody has replied, which means I am probably asking too much of you. I might be able to code some lighting modes myself but I need to learn how to associate IR codes with them. While figuring out finer details of the project, I have also learned that I would like to control a relay...

    Large project, speaker help needed

    Alright, realising my limitations cost wise has led me to getting a cheap set of computer speakers and just using a powered USB hub with a relay controlled by IR, rendering this post obsolete. I would still very much like Arduino coding help, if this is something you can assist with, please...

    Large project, speaker help needed

    I that they aren't top notch, but for me this becomes a compromise I have to take because if the cost is too great, nothing is going to happen at all. I realise that I cannot do this the way I want, so I am gonna go for a commercial product that I just put in. This means that I will still need...

    Large project, speaker help needed

    When you say enclosures, what does that mean? Do I have to build an airtight enclosure for this? What I would like to do is to go with a commercial product, but my criteria are that it can be powered from what is already in there and that the cost is low. I might be able to find used speakers...

    Large project, speaker help needed

    This might get messy, so if it does, I apologize in advance. I am making this. I think I have most of that setup, but unlike the person on that website, I want to add speakers to it. The LED strips will use this. I will use these speaker elements. I understand I will need som kind of amplifier...

    Large project, compatibility and coding help needed

    Please refer to this. with the coding found here. First, the cost is an issue. Am I in the clear by utilizing 2 of these? I would like to add and tweak the lighting modes. I have programmed before, on a very beginner level, and I understand some of the code this project uses, but I need help...

    Is this a resistor?

    Thank you. Hoping to make some gloves with those in them. -pusur

    Is this a resistor?

    Please look here. There is a part next to the LED on this board that says 101 on it. I don't expect a definite answer since I imagine that would be difficult to answer, but is this likely a resistor? -pusur

    PDF file convert to Gerber.

    I'm not promising anything and all that but sometimes I have luck finding stuff. If you post some details along with the pdf file I can see what I can dig up about it. -pusur

    Help regarding possibility and planning

    I've managed to find out that PCB manufacturers need gerber files and I've made those. Do any of you have and PCB manufacturers to recommend? What gerber files does PCB manufacturers need? -pusur

    Help regarding possibility and planning

    I went to Digi-Key and choose all my parts, And it's just about 25 USD, less than 1/4th of what I found earlier. The only parts I'm having trouble getting are 2x10 position 0.1" x 0.1" right angle header (JP2 on Adafruit parts list), 6 pin header, 0.1"x0.1" spacing (ICSP), 28-pin socket (IC1')...

    Help regarding possibility and planning

    I must first comment on how happy I am for this help, you and everybody else. I will need to research what I you said here but it might take some time as I've come down with a hefty cold. I probably will just email the PCB schematics if I can find them and start there. As for the parts, I need...

    Help regarding possibility and planning

    Well the way it stands now, it costs me way more than the kit I linked in the first place. I'm not giving up, just need to get the costs down.. -pusur

    Help regarding possibility and planning

    A bit of research shows that buying all the parts separate costs quite a lot, anyone know a reliable, cheap online parts retailer I can contact to make me an offer? -pusur
