Re: Nicad Battery Charger with NiMH Batteries.............

Janitor Tzap, the BTY batteries I bought on Ebay are complete junk. They tested about 1/5 of the advertised capacity. The best AA NimH batteries I've tested are the Rayovac 2400mAh. They tested at about 2300mAh, also the Energizers were good at 2300mAh. Both run about $2-$2.50 each at my local store...

Re: Message Board update

Isn't that why we don't see much activity here? If we only allow those who know how to get the photos here, I think this forum will continue to degrade. Most of us started electronics for the fun of it I believe. I know I did. If we expect people to just jump in and already know how to use image hos...

Re: Message Board update

Yes, I understand what you're saying and it's fairly easy to upload, copy and paste a link, but only if you have places in mind that'll keep the photo for very long periods of time. The real problem here, that I see, is that most people don't know how to do any of those things. I'm the Administrator...

Re: Message Board update

The first images I upload directly from my computer posted ok, but later was deleted. The next time I tried, this forum said I reached it's quota. I'm assuming your image host is at: www yarker-dsyc.info? I managed, with effort, to use wikimedia for the image host for my hot glue experiments posts. ...

Re: Beheaded fatty nail as soldering tip...

This thread reminds me of when I used to replace the expensive tips with grounding wire. I completely forgot about that. Thanks!

Re: Message Board update

I got a response from him after I pmed Vern on Facebook, and posted "Is this forum dead?" in this forum. Lol!
Don't turn purple. You might get stuck that way. :)

Re: Message Board update

Maybe Sean doesn't get paid enough to hunt down and install new software? or maybe he doesn't have enough resources to pay for new stuff. Either way, maybe we can keep showing others how to upload and show pictures. I don't know, since it was kinda hard for me to do it myself. I'm about to complete ...

Re: Message Board update

I've talked to him via PM. I was hoping he'd go further than just updating this forum, by giving us the ability to upload pictures from our computers. Like Facebook.

Re: To evaluate performance of used 18650 cells...

That sounds good to me. My tester works pretty well though, and it only costs $4.79. I hate designing anything that I can get cheaper and better somewhere else.

Re: Experimenting with Hot Glue..

Thanks guys. Dyarker, with Ceasar's help I managed to get the image in where it belonged. I first tried to copy and paste the link into the text area. Anyway, I hope I can remember the next time. Lol. Ceasar, actually I like the idea of making the projects I make educational, so I guess I'll have to...
