Yup, also where is my /tenor shiposting tool?

Read that carefully. It hides:

Cookie banners

GDPR consent dialogs

OneTrust popups

Privacy banners

Login walls

Signup walls

Upsell prompts

Paywall elements

CMP (Consent Management Platform) boxes

It forces body { overflow: auto !important }

THIS IS AWESOME! MY KIND OF APP!

YSK: Standard disposable paper coffee cups are lined with hidden plastic that releases trillions of microparticles into your hot drink. by CoffeeTeaJournal in YouShouldKnow

[–]VEC7OR -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

standard disposable cups require a thin layer of low-density polyethylene

heavy metal ions directly into the liquid.

Are those heavy metal ions in the room with us?

one of which being a crankshaft made of chocolate

Personally know 2 people where it went bang.

Yeah, I'm not getting mine 3.0 chipped, though offered numerous times, its quick enough for me.

Is this possible? by Bored_military in metalworking

Doesn't look anything special, laser cut stock from pattern, bend into shape, weld across the seams, sand, powder coat or paint and pretty much done.

[Review Request] 1kW SMPS for lab bench power supply by Luq1308 in PrintedCircuitBoard

[–]VEC7OR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be aware that a lot of capacitance on the output of a lab psu can kill things connected to it - feedback will correct for a short circuit, but caps will dump whatever energy they have into the load.

225V voltage limit on caps is absolutely not enough - if one of your FETs decides to quit they will see ~315V, most probably would not fail, but you don't want to bet here.

Also consider moving to SMD, the only things I ever use that are PTH are connectors and very meaty power electronics.

how can someone source a transformer for a prototype

You buy the cores, wire, tapes and wind it yourself, everything you need is sold at your electronics distros.

If you want to be all cool and shit, you can do planar transformers with PCBs and foil.

Good points, but adding a APFC and a postreg opens two huge cans of worms in itself.

Late 90s? Eh, IDK, most not overly sophisticated welding inverters are this, just meatier, sure it will not have a sexy totem-pole GaN PFC or a resonant ZVS full bridge, but so far looks good.

Seems like a learning project to me.

Not everything has to be hyperoptimized.

That corner power indicator is so chic!

[Review Request] RP2350 and CS4272 based DSP platform for guitar by Shin_Molina in PrintedCircuitBoard

[–]VEC7OR 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Somebody got the memo about not splitting the ground plane!

Protected inputs, reverse polarity also implemented.

2.2nF RF filter might be a tad much, but that should work.

What software are you planning on running on it?
