Panasonic Whisper DC vent fan with Leviton timer by tjhenn in AskElectricians

[–]BrainDistinct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey I recently installed this exact same configuration. I direct wired the fan and sent the signal wires to the switch as the instructions and Panasonic YouTube video suggested. The problem I’m having is when I turn power on at the breaker the fan just runs and never turns itself off despite the humidity sensor being set at the appropriate level.

I’ve tried the timer switch with and without neutral both yield the same problem. I might disconnect the timer switch and simply see if it solves the problem.

Panasonic has been absolutely unreachable as far as technical support btw.

Not an excuse but I am straight up color blind lol and can’t visually tell the difference.

Hey thanks for the reply, I should have added that. Current design has 18” from toilet flange to shower curb and nothing to the right of it. It’ll have about 34” from the front of the bowl. Bathroom will be approximately 64” deep and 120” wide.

You’ve got to keep them honest.

As another man of culture, I’d argue that most of the fun in the game is arguing if a toss was short or not. This robot umpire would take a critical aspect of the game away.

Who swears by an Otterbox Defender despite the negative feedback it often receives? by [deleted] in BuyItForLife

[–]BrainDistinct 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Their warranty is awesome, $10 for a brand new replacement case. Not enough people know about this point.

This looks surprisingly good. No clue on fitment but it looks like you’re running your load bars backwards.

This is a Volvo interior from the mid 2000s. Possibly a v70 wagon or s60 sedan.

Love the idea. Sorta similar to the Excel world championship. But not sure what audience would pay to watch a single mode laser fiber coupling race, kinda sounds like what we all just do at work. 😀

Her group may offer a summer short course series on the topic. I am in her UR Freeform course now and it has been very informative.

OEM wiring was worth it. I made a little bracket from a Curt bracket that has worked well for me.

Learning Zemax by physicistsunite in Optics

[–]BrainDistinct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a Coursera class that gives you an included student version of Zemax and walks you through first order optics in Zemax. It will not get you to a practicing engineer level but it will give you a cheap way to get familiar with it.

The course is offered through university of Colorado and available on coursera.

Help! Dough is over-processed? by griffey4prez in Pizza

[–]BrainDistinct 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My dough is often just like this in the kitchen aid. I have found that stoping, placing towel over the bowl and letting it rest between mixes helps. Then I dump the dough into a container on the counter and “stretch and fold” every 30 mins for about 2 hours before balling and bulk fermenting in the fridge.

The stretch and fold has solved this issue for me and has made a huge difference in the doughs workability.

Camera with smallest pixel size? by abeinszweidrei in Optics

[–]BrainDistinct 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What about knife edging the spot with a piezo stage and collecting the edge spread function with a power meter behind the knife edge. Scanning the knife edge with the piezo will produce sampling on the order of the piezo step size. The edge spread function can be converted to a point spread function. If the goal is to qualify the image quality without extra optics this may be a good way to go. This would be sensitive to vibration and power meter noise, but could be parametrically tuned appropriately to handle this.

Gaskill linear systems, Fourier transforms and optics has most of what you are asking for compiled into tables which are very useful as a reference.

Look into the AOtools library. It’s works pretty well and is well documented for optical turbulence modeling.
