This is the wrong site to be looking for XXXTentacion merchandise.

Re: Battery Bank won't replace a plain old battery

USB power is not just voltage on two wires. The host and device negotiate the current needed. The blinking is the power IC in the "bank" checking to see if a smarter device has been plugged in. Hmmm......... I used that circuit of a Battery Bank as an example, because it is common and eas...

Re: Battery Bank won't replace a plain old battery

jimandy, A battery bank won't work for the circuit you want to power. Here's a wiring diagram of a simple Power Bank. https://i.ytimg.com/vi/kIm7mKrD9_I/maxresdefault.jpg As you can see, the battery is only 3.7Vdc. I'm surprised the LED with dropping resister works at all. :lol: You'd be better off ...

Re: Digital Multimeter Ribbon Cable Connection

Okay,

Anyone else consider this posting suspicious?
I looked at NV014454's profile.
It says joined in 2013, but this is the first post?

Very suspicious.....

Re: Need help searching for magnets..

Okay, that helps, kinda. :lol:

Go find a E-Bike, or Electric Bike dealer.
See if they have a service dept.
Show the mechanic's the Electric Hub Motor you have.
Maybe they could retro-fit one of the newer Hub Motors to fit your trike.

Re: Need help searching for magnets..

I found this company: Indigo Instruments https://www.indigoinstruments.com/magnets/rare_earth/blocks/ Only they are using the Metric Standard. So you'll need to remeasure the magnet in Millimeters to find the right size. Hmmm............... The page I linked to only shows magnets up to 2" X 1/8...

Re: Fully Functional TV is Headed for Junk Pile

Yeah, I would also check for bad solder joints on the LED Driver section. And maybe bad Cap's in that section as well. I haven't seen the flashing issue on LCD Monitor/TV's. But with those screw in LED Bulbs. Instead of just burning out, like a standard Incandescent bulb. The LED's will dim, then re...
