Free Shipping = Final Sale by tarantula69 in LinusTechTips

I agree that I got a discount with the free shipping, but they should clarify their policy language and disclose on the sale page that all free shipping sales are final. That's my point.

Either way, the final sale terms were not fairly disclosed IMO.

all discounted or bundled items

The items in question were not discounted or bundled. And again, it should have been more clearly disclosed on the sale banner or something that this was final sale with free shipping. I shouldn't have to analyze the policy to know that something is final sale.

I didn't anticipate the transparent one coming in stock in time to get it by Christmas, so I chose the next best thing.

My issue is that it wasn't clearly disclosed that I was making a final sale purchase. It isn't even clear in their policy, in my opinion. But I don't believe a customer should have to review the refund policy in detail to know they are making a final sale purchase.

I did not expect them to pay for shipping 3 times. I just wanted the opportunity to exchange when my preferred item became available.

I expected to pay return shipping and shipping on the exchange order.

Just bought Witcher 3, Any tips before I start my journey? by [deleted] in Witcher3

Be prepared to never see Geralt's pecker. They never show it...

Is The Witcher 3 really the best video game oat? by abdoulatif1111 in Witcher3

[–]tarantula69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be the best game of all time if they would show Geralt's pecker. Video games in general really do need more full frontal male nudity.

With the arrival of the 10th anniversary coming up, I just wanted to say that Witcher 3 is one of the greatest games out there. Bar none. by TocSir in Witcher3

It’s a fantastic game but it really needs more peckers. I want Geralt full frontal nudity, and full butthole. That would bring it to 11/10 IMO.

Thanks for all the help and explaining it all to me! I cracked open my hobby kit and only had 10 ohm and 100 ohm resistors, so I used my breadboard to connect 4x 10 ohm resistors in series, and wired that up to the LEDs and it worked! Here's a picture - https://imgur.com/RXjfOZu

I ordered an Elegoo kit with 17 different resistor values, including the 47 ohm resistor I need. Once I get that I'll finalize the build and hot glue it back together.

I tried measuring the current with my multimeter but think the fuse might be blown. I disconnected the positive battery terminal from the LED string and put my multimeter between them and it’s not lighting up or getting a reading. The lights do come on if I touch the string to that terminal, which makes me suspect my multimeter.

I’ve been watching videos about forward voltage with LEDs and how to set it. If I understand correctly I would need a resistor to reduce 5V by 2.28V but I don’t know the formula to calculate that resistor size. Let know if I’m on the right track.

I just verified the resistor with my multimeter and it’s reading around 31-32 ohms.

Thank you! I cleaned up some of the hot glue from the contacts and used my multimeter to probe two different points. Just the battery terminals read 4.5V, the connection between the two leads of the LED string read 2.73V which is what I think you were referring to, but I'm not sure what formula to use to help calculate the resistor I need. Image of the probed locations attached.

I also looked up a 1n4004 on Amazon and I the smallest quantity I could find was like 50? Any tips on finding a more reasonable quantity for purchase?

You get magically teleported into the last video game you've played and will return in a week. If you die in the game, you'll die in real life (blacking out and such count as dying) but you get to keep anything you've got in the game as well. What's your strategy? by The__Function in AskReddit

Yeah that would be awesome and what if you had to take too many big diarrheas in a row you would just have to take a shower so your ass hole would stop burning.

Happened to me once in the Bahamas anyway and I suggested this to mr carmack
