Thanks to you i've repaired my washing mashine phantom play touches. After drying front panel from inside it works like a charm. Moisture was the problem!
This is the best teaching I've seen in this potentially boring subject. Infanantaly better than sloppily drawn pictures. I don't know if one can make a dollar writing college text books today but if you did I would want one.
Nice video, when I had my electronics business this is how I worked and yes it is the way to prototype, but I also in stage three make a PCB and etch it my self before going to get the PCB, there is nothing better than in house prototype boards.
You need to add an intake compression expansion and exhaust then have the normal up down up down to make it a total of 8 cycles. It would use compression to make it's own heat and it would run pretty good without fire
Hello, I set up the system according to the plans provided by you, thank you! Im using it on a Boohenka dehumidifier (the one with the 1200ml tank). For switching, im wanting to use a raspberry pi zero 2 w GPIO (so 3.3V instead of 5V). However, i cannot get the system to run reliably. I was playing with the on and off switching times on the raspberry, but only managed to let the dehumidifier switch on once (not reproducible). Could the voltage be the reason, or is there something else I could adjust? Im now upping the voltage with a optocoupler (AZDelivery KY-019) as a first step.
Hello Leo, Are you still interested in Stirling engines? I have been involved in Stirling engine design for many years. I would enjoy connecting with you to talk Stirlings.
Very good Here is what I learned, using two diodes like you mentioned, make a very simple high impedance, but simple to control node in a circuit. And as always, the way you make custom hand made boards is very inspiring!
this is a really advanced design for an educational product. one improvement might be some limit switches to prevent overtravel in the wrong direction as you sort of discovered.
As an engineer, I find the Sterling engine a total waste of time. The amount of fuel that it use to produce so little power it is a turn off for me. Steam engines and internal combustion engines are 1000 times more efficient.
Great video, I have a stack of faulty USB micro, Sony, Dji, And new expensive Garmin devices made with USB micro; which, are supposed to be used in rugged environments!! Maddening! Thanks for the video
Leo!!! "Button Pusher Thing" and "Perky Jerky", dang you are good!!!! But what else could we expect from a Maybeck student, Berkeley skater and dude with a scar on the neck that chicks love!!!
I'd like to say a massive thank you for your circuit. I don't have the exact parts but i do have the equivalents, after making them i realized I've used it more than i could count, it's there, it's ready, it's convenient and durable. Even my teacher likes it.
Looking at the boxes on the shelf above his head, reading from left to right, soldering tools, wire (something), (something), soldering jigs / bender, solder (something) tips, RS-485 interface, switches, existential crisis, capacitors .... existential crisis?????
This is exactly what ive been looking for now for over four years. Currently, i use a mechanical setup to actate a Capacitive button on a mobile air con unit. It is a servo, and arduino nano with a temp/hmidity sensor. Once it hist a certain level, it actualtes the servo and does the same again to switch off when the air is cooled. It is being interfered with by AC i think, works fine for a bit then constantly switches on and off. Im hoping this will solve my issues!!!!
Great video and beautiful flower.. the motion appears to be very smooth. I've been searching for a flower like yours for my Tiki project. Would you be willing to share or sell your STL file so I can try it myself?
Hi, please help to understand how to read the power rating, its meaning.. like what are meaning of 25S, timeline 2.50 . And many thanks for such awesome teaching 🙏
