Hey Dave, the best thing about the 5 Buck meter got a free battery :D

[EEVblog]

Definitely! Please send them in for teardown.

I have a collection of knives. The Minichamp is the most practical and useful to carry everywhere on a daily basis.

I don't like springy probes - they stop you pressing hard enough to pierce resist etc.

Good to see a postcard from Jersey! I'm on Guernsey, a neighbouring island. Greetings Brad.

Dave, You could use this ring as light for camera.You can also use IR led for low light/night shots.

The yellow would go with your zappy logo really nicely. Maybe you could have them mix your exact color. Hopefully it wouldn't cost much per board. Love the prototype board.

Love the laser warning label on the envelope. Awesome!

[TilmanBaumann]

Man those protoboards from Mike are delicious.
Solid gold plating everywhere and really clever design.

nice Panasonic schematic, proper bench version with test points and waveforms, cool.

The white mask isn't ideal - I got annoyed with the older green ones that I couldn't write on it with a superfine permanent marker to label things, but the white is a bit too opaque to see the breakout tracks. Maybe yellow next time

I just look for gaps. This was the result of a corrupted project file in Sony Vegas. I did originally edit that part just fine, I didn't miss it.

White Wing Logic is getting ready to make a big entrance into the DMX community; one of their forthcoming products is the DMXcube, a new standalone DMX controller which mounts to a standard DIN rail, requires little to no ancillary hardware, and can be expanded to control up to 8192 channels.

That book and kit looks great! Well done vincent. I might have to by it...

[devinatkin]

It makes me want to cry the fact that that multimeter is better than mine. :(

[gazyounglive]

The postal stamp from jersey is british 70 pence, it's part of the british isles though they're self governed as far as I'm aware

[Petex]

Ohhh that Vincent's book looks very interesting!
