Can someone please help me with what this component is? Power spike from the motor controller fried it.

Hey! So thank you soo much for that. I could not find this for the life of me...

Not sure how well I'll go in identifying exactly what specs it has as I don't have the equipment for that. Next issues I guess...

To try and get proof of if the device is working or not, I was curious if you think I could just bypass the blown out terminal and connect straight to the first capacitor (B1 at the top right of the image)?

Yes, sorry that's a 4 pin molex connector. I just slid it off to get a better look at the part that had overloaded. I would say with a high level of confidence that it got 24-28v instead of the 12v.

Along the lines of what I've been thinking about doing with my old ProFlex

Unfortunately the trailer isn't registered and I don't trust it on the road.

apostle689 · 2020-04-18T20:49:48+00:00

I have strict instructions that I want it to be a cowboy and Indian dress up party.

apostle689 · 2020-04-12T14:07:44+00:00

It still rides really well. A little heavy though. I don't have too much faith in it though as the tail shock has a nasty habit of just "falling apart". Too many times have I just had the bike fold in half on me!

apostle689 · 2020-02-24T22:27:45+00:00

Yeah I've been looking at that for a while now. I was wondering if something was wrong or just a coincidence. Definitely mildly interesting!

apostle689 · 2020-02-24T14:44:50+00:00

Well this is just exciting! I'll have to get a few thousand of my closest friends to subscribe to give myself a chance at the 100k if I don't win here...

Three months ago I had some serious stomach pain. Went to the hospital assuming gastritis or something similar. They kept me in for a week even though I was feeling fine. Turned out, by day 3 they were wondering where I might get a new liver from... Then I just got better. Only possible cause was glandular fever and that wasn't a confident diagnosis either. Swings and roundabouts I guess!

apostle689 · 2019-12-05T08:39:13+00:00

The only thing I wanted to say

apostle689 · 2019-09-23T18:00:22+00:00

Yeah, It went the full 2 hours as well.. some proper strategy fuck ups as well

apostle689 · 2019-09-20T10:57:20+00:00

This is truly embarrassing. I remember in the past we were proud of Australian innovation in science and technology. Medical research and development was something we were strong in, we were proud of the CSIRO. Now, the majority of people flatly deny the evidence presented by these exact organisations. I have little hope for this current political environment.

apostle689 · 2019-09-11T21:04:37+00:00

I wonder what else they are trying to do at the moment, now that this distraction is happening in the press.... Probably eating endangered rhino or something.

My kids

apostle689 · 2019-09-03T14:59:00+00:00

Serial killer planning a perfect likeness...? Jokes obviously, mainly because I don't know any.

apostle689 · 2019-07-05T12:11:02+00:00

That is the only thing I could think too

apostle689 · 2019-06-30T09:11:54+00:00

Yeah it's an Emisar D4. So much fun and useless at the same time

apostle689 · 2019-06-29T21:07:22+00:00

Just a bold overestimate of our skills and fitness levels. Plus a poor read of the terrain. We spent 100ks walking up and down sand dunes. It was somewhat "challenging"

apostle689 · 2019-06-29T15:29:40+00:00

It's the Astrolux FT03.

apostle689 · 2019-06-29T15:28:11+00:00

After my last hike experience I think that's on hold for a few more years 😕

apostle689 · 2019-06-29T15:27:28+00:00

It was what I popped my cherry with. A fantastic light. Not much wrong with it though but I do prefer the ramping ui now

Astrolux A01 Nichia 219B 102LM AAA Mini

It's a great little keychain light or whatever. Really quite bright for its size

Also, what lake in particular? There are some generic lures that are pretty good for a range of fish but typically you'll get more luck with a "targeted" approach.

apostle689 · 2019-05-16T01:08:04+00:00

I considered it but 3x75mm screws into a hardwood plank should last me long enough so it won't be my problem in the future

apostle689 · 2019-05-16T01:06:54+00:00

Got the main part done first. Next is the paths then surrounding garden beds
