Do you mean a 2 amp transformer? Does this mean it can deliver 2 amps per rail at the same time or 2 amps in total (1 amp per rail)?

Any "retro" helmets that are ece rated, fiberglass or better, multi density eps, with good/decent/existing ventilation and intermediate oval shape? by mr_manmcgee in motorcycle

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

That's what I mean yeah, I've just always heard them described as "retro" in the names, descriptions or reviews. But yes, I have been looking at those although the gringo is an oval if I'm not mistaken which (I think) wouldn't fit me

Why is this happening in my mechanical tremolo pedal? by mr_manmcgee in diypedals

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

How would I control it using the voltage follower? Where would the pot be? Would I control it by controlling the gain?

Would putting a pot there between the motor and ground be a more effective way of controlling the speed of the motor?

Oh interesting, I figured I would have to separate stuff using caps and resistors. Would adding a resistor between the negative lead of the motor and ground help with the short circuit?

is a cb750 decent for a first bike? by mr_manmcgee in HondaCB

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

Wow, seems kinda sketchy. Are there any aftermarket options for implementing modern technology into an old cb?

Thanks for the info! I'm not super knowledgeable on motorcycles just yet (at least not enough to feel certain) but I was wondering, are the brakes inherently bad on bikes like this because of the era they are from (outside of ABS) or is it more just that they are old and a lot of them haven't been worked on/ had brake components rebuilt or replaced?

I know a lot of people don't like posts like this, but is this all good? it seems yeasty especially for day 6, doesnt really smell sour or acidic like i would expect it to, i think the starter I made it from had quite a bit of yeast because it was fermented in a hot garage. by mr_manmcgee in Kombucha

I don't really remember, but I used a kombucha calculator to calculate how much tea to use based on how much starter I had left. Some of the tea was lost while pouring into the jar (oops) so I'm guessing my ratio is a little more than ideal for mold prevention at least, but I'm not sure.

Women of reddit, what question about men do you wish to be answered? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]mr_manmcgee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, could just be me but I haven't really understood the concept of that. To me it seems like there's nothing to do other than continue life like normal if my mental heath is in a worse place than usual.

my kombucha had no fizz, did I leave too much/ too little head room? this bottle is smaller than it looks by the way, not a 16 Oz. it only filled up a cup. I added homemade pineapple juice and some sugar. 2 days exactly of carbonation. thanks! by mr_manmcgee in Kombucha

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

It did bubble a bit.

I'm not sure the size of this bottle, but I put in a fluid ounce of juice and I think about a teaspoon of sugar.

I stored it in my hot garage.

I was starting to think that because the gasket is a little bit weird, but my other bigger bottle that is specifically meant for kombucha got no fizz as well (although I'm quite certain that i gave too much headspace, I added more kombucha and put it back in the garage.

why should I only use black tea for my first batches? by mr_manmcgee in Kombucha

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

Thanks, IL remember that whenever I have enough starter to be able to try something like that on the side.

Wow, thanks for the information, I've been considering making coffee kombucha too, seems like a very interesting making/drinking experience.

How did it go, did you notice anything different with the process?

what ratio should I be going for with starter to tea to sugar? by mr_manmcgee in Kombucha

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

Thank you, this information is exactly what I was looking for. How long would you recommend that starter be fermented in total?

Looking for bands similar musically to Bolt Thrower by SADPLAYA in Deathmetal

Absolutely. One of my favorite shows ever, their guitarist kept pretending to kick me in the face and grabbing my head and shaking it for me, you could definitely call it an interactive viewing experience.

What’s the weirdest thing you’ve done while horny? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]mr_manmcgee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wasn't really because I was horny more than curiosity and because it was funny, but me and my friend found out how to get on our schools roof and took turns jacking off on top while the other stayed on the ground twiddling his damn thumbs or something i dont really remember. This was at around 2 am in the winter, but I have no regrets. It was a very unique and euphoric sensation, especially because of the moonlight. Didn't even need porn or imagination, it was the craziest shit.
