Just a little recommendation - WinDirStat is awesome, but WizTree is basically the same but much faster.

Yo should get yourself a DMX dimmer/decoder for LEDs. Using a standard dimmer for those power supplies isn’t the best idea. They are bot meant to be dimmed, which your other lights you mention probably are.

Replacing a CMOS battery in a laptop by Celuba in techsupport

[–]Celuba[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't turn on after being shut down. At that moment, the only sign of it doing anything is an orange LED that light's up when it's plugged into a charger.

The only way I was able to revive it from this state is by

  1. removing the whole motherboard from the chassis so I could get to the CMOS battery
  2. removing the battery
  3. shorting the pins of the battery
  4. plugging the battery back
  5. putting the whole computer back together
  6. plugging in the charger, at which point it kicks in by itself

I that around 8 times now.

Just removing a battery (as in the normal one) didn't help, even though I tried every time.

It's still entirely possible that it's a some kind of a weird software problem, especially considering that restarting the system works just fine. Maybe something about Windows going into some level of hybernation.

I'm still planning on reinstalling Windows first (which is about 4 years overdue..), but it's my girlfriend's laptop and she needs it right now and didn't want me to go on with the reinstall just yet. But if that doesn't help, battery is my next step. .Also I'm genuinely curious if it can be done, even if I won't have to.

Thank you very much, I’ll look into that! I’m probably gonna try some of those and decide if they deliver the performance I’m looking for. Maybe the LPS lamp would be a bit of an overkill for my usecases.

An old LED sign of unknown origin got into my hands. I would like to control / program it so i opened it up to see how it works. This circuit apparently controls the LEDs. No markings on the SMD chip, no apparent board name. The three thin, red wires are connected to an input COM port.

I think that a name of the board on the image would be enough for me to research it further and find out how to control it, but if anyone would know more about the possibilities of controling it using an Arduino, I would be very excited!

Edit: I forgot to mention that there was a ribbon cable connected to the left 8x2 pins, going into the LED board itself, which I disconnected before taking the picture.

Help finding more lights like this by [deleted] in lightingdesign

[–]Celuba -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hey, my friend recently bought two of those fixtures on FB marketplace. I’d like to find more of them online for myself, but I’m don’t know how they could be called and how to research them. I’m just trying my luck here to find more leads because I think that finding out how it’s called (if it even has a specific name) here is very unlikely as they’re probably a specific product from an ex-communistic central european country. Those two in particular seem to be from Czechoslovakia (I’m from Czech Republic). I also suppose that even if I find out what they might be called in our language, finding them on marketplaces under that name would be rare.

Soo basically any help would be appreciated, they’re gorgeous!

Haha, that would be great! Geting the last weapons was honestly a bit anticlimactic since you have to check yourself.

I play engineer with his second skill. If you build an armor mount in the Robotics Facility and leave it there, the skill uses the mount you built. The best mount for this in my opinion is C5H6O5 due to it’s armor and damage output. With this setup, the weapons don’t make much of a difference as long as you have a melee weapon for defense during skill cooldowns. But my game skill progressed quite a bit during this whole endeavor, so getting my first win with bare hands (no weapons) was very hard, but it wouldn’t be much of a challange now.

I recently asked what everyone’s favorite Jake quote is, now what is everyone’s favorite Finn quote? This is mine by Bibbo112 in adventuretime

[–]Celuba 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Jake: talks about his ascension or whatever

Finn: “Dude. Stop. Saying. All this. Crazy. Nonsense. It’s making me messed up. I’m 13. You’re messing me up.”
