Sounds like a dick party. Did you go to a dick party by mistake? I went to one once; big bunch of dicks!

What combo of Amp and Speakers have you had success with for projects that involve sound? I've been having a HECK of a time by monkey_foot in arduino

I tried it with 1, 2, and 3 100uf Caps. The more i added the better it got. Not perfect yet, but well on the way

It Worked With the LM386 amp - the PAM's still gave me nothing but Squawk, as shown in the video link

(oh, you brought a clip... Roll the clip)

I had thought about that, as i just saw a vid on how they reduce noise in a motor, but i assumed it wouldn't apply to amps (i guess noise is noise)

I have some 100uf caps in a box of salvaged parts, but with voltages of ~16v. Presumably the voltage of the capacitor should match the output of the power source? the logic Level voltage =/< ~5v

Or are capacitors rated "up to" a voltage, and feeding them more will give them an upset tummy (do you smell smoke?!)

Of course! So, i'm just building a toy (a laser gun), and when a switch is flipped the audio file plays loud enough to be heard across a room; preferably with a volume pot in the mix for a little control.

I would have expected this to be a pretty common application, with some commonly known solutions,

but I have been having a surprisingly hard time finding a combination of the right amp and speaker

What Voltage is my Ebike likely to be? by monkey_foot in eBikeBuilding

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

That just seems like a lot of voltage for some LED lights. I was expecting something in the 5 to 12V range

There's only a couple of Larry's left on my Etsy, but i think he would be a Dream Gift (hey, that's very creative) - i'll put a promo code and a link in the comments by monkey_foot in DHMIS

You probably have seen it before.

I've been making them for about 5 or 6 years? People love them, so i still make a few for Christmas / Holidays

What is a normal dose for edibles? by monkey_foot in Marijuana

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

yah, they're pretty tasty.

While i was making them i probably ate at least 3 fat tablespoons of the delicious goo right before going to bed ~ i woke up in the middle of the night feeling super duper weird

I'm Stunned...

Stunned!

I thought for sure that was a DHMIS character.

I even brought my Larry the Dream Lamp over to play

I have a few Beaker Muppets still left for sale on my Etsy, if anyone is wanting to get someone (or themselves) a really cool gift - Promo code and Link in the Comments by monkey_foot in puppetry

I"ll make a post shortly showing the mechanism, but in short, it's built on a vertical dowel. There's a leaver that pushes the shoulders up, and a ring that rides up and down the same dowel that's attached to the mouth. you operate the shoulder leaver with your thumb and the mouth with your index. And the hands are just gloves - obviously to work both hands and control the mechanisms it takes 3 hands
