In this electronics basics episode, we will be having a closer look at overvoltage/surge protection components. Now a voltage surge only occurs rarely through lightning, inductive switching in your grid or an electrostatic discharge. But if they hit your electronics, they can immediately destroy them. But with the 3 shown components you can easily and for pretty cheap save your circuits. Let's get started!

    I have had overvoltage(home) in sockets but the ptotecton has not blown due to low power demand aka no load but low power devices and those devices have got lots of damage, some insta out of commission others over time.

  • @paveljelinek772
    @paveljelinek772 Před 15 hodinami

    Are you serious? Car alternators give as high as 14.7V to keep the battery charged! Are you mad??? 12V it would mean that the current would go from the battery (new has 12.8V) until it reaches 12V and then it'd just destroy itself, meaning you'd be no longer able to start the car!

  • @Alley00Cat
    @Alley00Cat Před 15 hodinami

    Punchline is 3D printed motors are very inefficient due to non or poor ferromagnetic stator and rotor. This is where the Halbach array comes in where a special alignment of permanent magnets orients the magnetic field towards the coils without the need of a ferromagnetic rotor. So plastic does work, thanks to Chris Laimer!

    Try using the RCWL-0516 microwave motion sensors. They work incredibly well and can be used behind solid objects so using your frosted diffuser would be no problem. The distance can be adjusted with small variable resistors to fine tune. Additionally you could add some wifi (esp8266? Or similar) and connect to home assistant to get motion alerts or trigger lights to blink in your bedroom or office so as to notify you when someone is coming up the stairs.

    I once took a look inside the intercom in my apartment to try to do something similar and was shocked to find that the one I have ran on 230VAC, just at a screw terminal, that I can’t turn off myself. Needless to say, I put that project on the backburner and thought of alternative ways of detecting a ringing intercom. I do know some smartphones have a built in assistive listening feature that in theory would notify a user of a doorbell sound, but I’m guessing that’s only effective if the phone is close enough to hear it clearly

    The main reason tube amps are preferred by music producers, engineers, and guitarists, is that they still sound good when the amp is overdriven, but the sound is compressed when overdriving a transistor amp of similar wattage. I'm not talking about artificial overdrive

  • @guy-francknakach488

    I came accross this brilliant video a couple of weeks ago and absolutely loved it, including the issues and how you try to deal with them. All of a sudden, I don't feel alone anymore :). I found the idea very good, so I had to try it and sourced a few components and knoked up a few boards on the micro cnc and wired everything > I modified ever so slightly the schematic and the code to address some logic issue with the pin In and Out. On one board everything works, but as soon as you connect several boards they start firing up randomly. Like you I spent a bit of time trying to figure out what happened. My conclusion was that it was nothing to do with the noise on the in/out line. In fact the issue is the variance in the response from the VCNL4200 sensor from one unit to the next and also within the same unit!. So I finally got it to work by measuring a "reference threshold" in the setup of the code (so I might have different value for each sensor) and also by taking the average of 11 samples for each reading of the proxy sensor. That completely fixed my issue! (I think ;) ) If you are interrested in the code or schematic I can of course share it. Thanks again for your great work!

    But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith which we preach): 9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Yeshua ישוע (Jesus) and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.” 12 For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him. 13 For “whoever calls on the name of the YHVH יהוה (LORD) shall be saved.” Romans 10:1-13

    @GreatScott, great video.... one of my ideas is to use an RFID similar in old car vehicle on a the main door key. and attach a RFID reader inside the door with a movement sensor, that will allow you to know if your door lock is picked or somebody has copied your key and has accessed your house, the idea is that with different technology in picking systems it may come in handy to have what I call … a silent alarm… that allows you to turn the cameras or do other stuff …

    This is not a serious test. Where is the anechoic chamber? Anyhow, greatScott doing great work again. I think this is the point of having analog designed amplifiers---obtaining these harmonics. They round the sound and make it more ample and rich. You are right, it is all a matter of perception and some prefer a "cleaner" sound. There is an entire branch of physics dedicated to psychoacoustics so perhaps the debate will not be settled in a short video...
