    The way the Tough Book is able to detect the screen is closed without exposing the internal parts to water ingress is using a hall effect sensor (or less likely a reed switch) which detects a small magnet in the the other half of the clamshell. The Apple Watch has a magnet in it to lock the charging cable in place. This issue is not so common on newer laptops, although I can't speak to the Tough Book range, because they use a sensor in the hinge rather than in the palm rest, but this was definitely an issue on older laptops.

    I really hate to complain about anything but "Path of least resistance" ... *sigh* current will take all paths in proportion to each path's resistance. If something has significantly higher resistance (say a human body compared to a wire to ground) then it will carry nearly no current but will still carry some.

    • @binaryoverload
      @binaryoverload Před 4 lety +4

      I think the saying mainly comes from the fact that, in circumstances like human vs ground wire, the resistance difference is so great that the current the human will carry is so minimal it's not worth thinking about?
      It seems the saying is more of a short cut. Instead of saying "The path that has the least resistance in comparison to the other wires will carry the highest proportion of current" you can just say "The path of least resistance" :P

    @gordonLP Před 4 lety

    Hi Thomas, can I check...(I'm not an electrician + I'm old (77) and dodgy) when using the multiplier of 1.666 for the calculation for the R2 value, it is only valid for a CPC csa of 1.5mm, but 1970's wiring could have had a 1mm CPC, therefore the multiplier would then be 2.5. Based on your reading of 0.55 ohms for R1, the R2 value would in that case have been 1.4 ohms or thereabouts (I don't know what value you had for your R2 reading as you didn't mention it in thee video).

    All my electrical training was at sea and I’m aware we’re weird as f**k in our approach, but, I was always taught to use one hand as often as possible. Especially when testing or mucking about in an enclosure. If you take a jolt with both hands in the circuit, the current is going to pass across your heart.
    I’ve never been a huge fan of mature apprentices. They’re often too full of their own opinions. All credit to her though, she seems willing to listen and learn.

    Haha, after reading some of the comments, it's no wonder they both play up for the camera! Does he fancy her? Probably, does she fancy him? Who knows, are they both single? Who knows. Who else does it concern? No fucker! You seem like a good teacher Tom, explaining everything well, you both seem to get on and work well together and can have a laugh!
