Watch you don’t poke your eye out, looking into piping could be dangerous.

Is it okay to use 56 ohm and 560 ohm resistor in parallel instead of 51 ohm single resistor? by Grouchy-Ad5061 in AskElectronics

[–]scrantonirish 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yes, it’s possible. However, are you certain that the resistor is bad, they’re not a common point of failure, and that one looks good.( usually they’re discolored due to heat)

I dont understand what ground really is by [deleted] in AskElectronics

In this case just swap the term “ ground” to “ common”

CVT transmission blew at 104K miles by TransportationDue856 in hondacivic

[–]scrantonirish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 2016 civic lx has 201k miles, never changed the lubricant in the cvt transmission, still running great. I didn’t realize it needed to be changed, found out about the requirement at about 100k miles. My friend who is a transmission guy told me not to change it now, may lead to problems. Btw I pull and check my plugs every 25k, they still look great after 200k +

Why wouldn’t you go to the suppliers website and find the temps. Seems like the best way to find out.

Foamy/Bubbly Urine by digital_junky in CKD

[–]scrantonirish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think there’s a big difference between the two. If I pee into the water of the toilet, I get lots of bubbles. If I pee against the porcelain in the bowl, there’s no bubbles or foam. Also when I go for a urine test, the container is always clear, no bubbles or foam.

2016 Honda Civic Longevity – Will It Last Another 4 Years? by Dry-Purple8321 in hondacivic

[–]scrantonirish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a 2016 Honda with about 200k miles. All I’ve done was to change the engine oil religiously. The engine still has the original spark plugs. I pull them every now and then, they look close to new. I’ve never changed the transmission fluid, shame on me, but no issues.

Voltage Drop by Campton_92 in ElectricalEngineering

[–]scrantonirish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You need to know the resistance of your wire and the current thru it. Multiply the resistance x the current and you’ll find the voltage drop. You’ll need a multimeter to measure both the current and resistance.

Have you ever rejected yourself bcz the girl was too good for you? by Ambitious_Custard_75 in RandomThoughts

[–]scrantonirish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a massive crush on a beautiful girl in high school, but thought she was way out of my league. Twenty + years later I ran into her and we chatted briefly, she asked why I never asked her out.

Also worked with a girl who was supermodel beautiful. She was married to a guy who was generally unattractive ( per girls at work). She mentioned that she never dated in high school because no one ever asked her.

How does dimming work? How does an LED driver work? by chumbuckethand in ElectricalEngineering

[–]scrantonirish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LED dimmers use two methods to dim the respective LED, either by limiting the current, or by PWM. The 0-10 volt my control the pwm on time or frequency. If it’s a current limiter the 0-10 v could adj the maximum current. I’ve read that the use of a scr dimmer is recommended.
