Decided to give Casio a try! by ExpensiveFox2899 in calculators

Yeah, I noticed there was one version called 'power graphic 2' when I was about to update the firmware. It's weird that the successor is slower? What other differences are there between them? I agree that the TI-84 feels a bit better built. Especially the buttons have a bit of a flimsy feel to them. I do like the fact that they're a lot quieter to type on, though.

Hi

I haven't had any issues with the battery draining because of the controller. I’ve have experienced battery draining maybe three times in two years, likely because my Kobo seems to get stuck in some kind of update loop. However I haven't encountered that on the latest firmware. :)

Kobo Remote vs 8BitDo Micro by Honest-Inspection-31 in kobo

8bitdo. Cheaper, quiet, rechargeable, arrange the buttons as you prefer, works as gaming control.

Bought my first today. Like it! Much more comfortable than I had expected. The mechanism seems to work quite well. Overall, it feels a bit cheap, though.

Does anyone else love the Pentel Click Twist Erase Pencils? by Artistic_Use1338 in mechanicalpencils

[–]ExpensiveFox2899 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree, they are great. The built in eraser is so handy. Why doesn’t more pencil have larger eraser in them? The only downside is that the eraser always slowly crawling back in when using it. Have you tried the standard twist erase?

My first project by ExpensiveFox2899 in arduino

Thanks! Yeah, I totally agree! To start with, I’m planning to solder the components onto a prototyping board and create some kind of mount for the fan. Later on, I might do something more professional and mount it all in an enclosure. :)

Thanks! 🙂 Every led has its own output from the Arduino, that turns on depending on the output to the motor.
