@IanSJohnston @eevblog I don’t think Dave’s trying

This level of stupidity has taken me years of practice!

Yes in the same way people climb Mount Everest a lot. It is just a corner case reserved for special applications in a world of ever increasing abstraction.

@GearNoIdea @Circuit_Crush I beg to differ. Many people still write Assembly. Lots of techmedia seems to have forgotten about it but it's still there. Depends on the chip and the requirements of your product/industry/usecases/etc.

Every little helps as we say here

Germany needs to switch to more renewable energy sources faster...........am I doing it right?😅

CRYPTON BATTERY CHARGER RESURRECTION https://t.co/qY54fydU85 via @YouTube Today I will be doing a resurrection video on this 1960 Crypton ChargeMaster. Fun starts at 11:00 so join me in the chat and see how we go!

[AllTheGearNoIdea @GearNoIdea]

Looks like the transformer is good not sure about the selenium rectifier

[AllTheGearNoIdea @GearNoIdea]

Wondering if any of the vintage technology lovers out there can help me find some information on the vintage Crypton ChargeMaster automotive battery charger. This will be the next vintage repair on the bench soon.

Not feeling the inspiration today and got off to a slow start. Decided to practice removing and replace smd components on some scrap circuit boards. Alway enjoyed soldering and it good to practice before taking on an expensive or difficult repair.

@baljemmett Yes I did manage to program a boot disk using the disk drive in the C unit. The disks have a special formatting so they aren’t very easy. I recommend the C version with the built in hard drive if you can find one

Photo. Children are annoying

[AllTheGearNoIdea @GearNoIdea]

I have no idea what it is but I want one!

Been a good while since doing SMD rework, and let me tell you -

That lil 0805 4-way resistor network was a pain in the ass.

[AllTheGearNoIdea @GearNoIdea]

These are a good performance radio but the one I have eats the batteries and is always flat when I want it.

[AllTheGearNoIdea @GearNoIdea]

@DextersTechLab There is software that will automatically align multiple scans into one document

[AllTheGearNoIdea @GearNoIdea]

Man eaten alive by cow

[AllTheGearNoIdea @GearNoIdea]

Today we are going to have a look a Bush portable valve radio from 1957. A first look and more resurrection than restoration. Join me 14:30 Today https://t.co/BkqCHiI8rQ

This was news about 5 years ago.

Quantum computers proved to have ‘quantum advantage’ on some tasks https://t.co/aiiTqyL8C5

[AllTheGearNoIdea @GearNoIdea]

Can I recommend Great Scott’s latest video on fake components. I have was bitten a few years ago and it’s now worse than ever. Your Components are probably FAKE! Soooo is that BAD? https://t.co/5pe9Kdh333 via @YouTube

@tehnyit Diabetes?

Join me Sunday morning where I will be taking a look at UV exposure and it’s uses within electronics. Processing PCBs and erasing EPROMs. Join me at 11:00 for the alternative Sunday service https://t.co/CWSTv0spNC
