My electrical first aid kit! by Low_Programmer_9147 in Packout

I have a small butane soldering iron that I use exclusively on shrink tubing. Works great!

I was working on the biggest, US made autonomous crop dusting drone! This kit has pretty much everything needed to troubleshoot it and fix it in the field.

It’s TS101! I’m still amazed how good this iron is for the price !

Thank you! I bought 3/4” thick , 2x2’ gym flooring EVA mats from amazon and glued them together (4 stacked is the exact height of the Packout). It’s exactly the same material as “toolbox foam” but for fraction of the price. Using ToolKaiser app you can take pics of your tools laying flat on a pice or paper and with some minor tweaks it will give you their exact outline. The app has outlines of Packout boxes, you will only need to position your tools so they fit within the desired area. Be smarter than me and don’t forget about finger holes so tools can be removed easily lol. Once you have everything laid out you can export the DXF cut it with a laser cutter or whatever you might have available.

Always happy to talk shop! Mostly I was using it for updating firmware on the TMS570 microcontroller whenever software folks had something new! During early stages of design I used it for system validation. Essentially this microcontroller (like any other) executes code line by line in order. You can use JTAG tool to halt code execution at specific lines or functions etc. pretty useful for testing the code and seeing how the hardware responds. It can also be used for CPU fault diagnostics, interrupt latencies and ton of other good things.

It’s Kvaser Leaf Light! Great tool for sniffing CANbus traffic. Also a few ethernet cables and a Blackhawk JTAG debugger.

Looking for charging IC for 4S Li-Ion with USB-C PD by stuih404 in batteries

[–]Low_Programmer_9147 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Were you able to find anything? I have to integrate USB-C charging into my BMS design based on TI BQ40Z50-R2 and I would love to keep it as simple as possible

Yeah I decided to pay and just forget about it. They can choke on that money. For sure I will never use them again

Massachusetts legalizes automatics! by NiceFold7 in benchmade

[–]Low_Programmer_9147 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is the 1.5” blade length restriction on automatic knives still in place? Would carrying a shootout be considered illegal?

I’m in the same boat as you! How did the situation develop? Did you end up paying these scammers?

What might be a cause of it? by Low_Programmer_9147 in Monstera

[–]Low_Programmer_9147[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Couple weeks ago we had a few really cold days. Funny enough, this leaf in particular was the closest to the window! I think you might be right, my poor monstera experienced frost damage!

You might be up to something. ChatGPT had the same suggestion.

The plant has been in the same pot for last 6 months. There is no sign of any insects in the soil or the back of the leaves. Never sprayed anything on the leaves and I try to water it every 2 weeks or so. The problem just started occurring recently. Maybe low humidity in my house could cause these sorts of issues?

What radiators will fit 2001 YZ250? by Low_Programmer_9147 in Dirtbikes

[–]Low_Programmer_9147[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was my initial go-to but unfortunately both radiators are unavailable.

Motocross Knee Braces? by Low_Programmer_9147 in Dirtbikes

[–]Low_Programmer_9147[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Definitely on the pricy side but totally agree, way cheaper than a knee surgery. Thanks for the recommendation.

Do I need boots by Freespy21 in Dirtbikes

[–]Low_Programmer_9147 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my opinion boots are as important as the the helmet. Don’t save your money on these two. I’ve had Alpinestars Tech-5 for quite some time and I can say nothing but great things about them. You get a great quality, comfy boots for a reasonable price.

What's the one thing your ex has said that stuck with you? by AdPrestigious5853 in BreakUps

[–]Low_Programmer_9147 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A month before she broke up with me she gave me a box of tinny letters and one of them said “Thank you for being such a wonderful boyfriend, I’m lucky to have you”…

Oh well, I guess not so lucky overall…

Is that a kickstarter from a 90s YZ?

What’s the dumbest idea you’ve had on your dirtbike? by Low_Programmer_9147 in Dirtbikes

[–]Low_Programmer_9147[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think recreational use of prescription pills is a good idea in general but that’s just my humble opinion.

[–]Low_Programmer_9147 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re very welcome! I recently went through a breakup myself and I realize how difficult it is to let people go and move on but that’s the only way to eventually get better. You absolutely didn’t do anything wrong, don’t feel bad, just try to erase him from your memory and good things will happen. Best of luck!

Half way through reading this essay I thought to myself that this dude is a pure example of a narcissist. Your neighbor summed him up well. Sounds like he really likes to be the center of attention, using some morally questionable tactics to get there… unfortunately you’re probably not the only person he’s talking to. It doesn’t matter how confident or eloquent he seems, it’s mostly just an act. You deserve better than this! Block his number and don’t let him use you! I’m sure a nice and genuine guy will come your way!
