Anyone have this name brand of meters?
They are ok for what they are, but I hate that they keep cutting off after 5 min or so.
Does anyone know if there's a way to override this auto shut off function ?
I'm bout ready to throw them all out.. i hate when i'm trying to do things and it just cuts off..

Looking for a new gadget....maybe new idea ?
I do a lot of electrical work.. I made a small gadget that is basically a pizeo beeper attached to a lil wall wart. I plug it in and it beeps loudly.. I use this to find which circuit breaker it's connected to.. when flipped off, the beeping stops.. There are times when I have to search for a breake...

Re: Anyone make anything interesting for christmas ?
I'm trying to revamp my analog looking led clock. Mainly need to rewire the display.. going to make it also GPS and RTC. Nice clock, but annoying to set the time, each time there's a power glitch.. and sometimes strong EMF will make the time go into Ludicrous speed...lol I'm Using an Arduino and a s...

Anyone make anything interesting for christmas ?
Over the years I have made small electronic circuit board trees with bunches of leds etc.
some were kits, a few totally home made.. I don't know why the preview is sideways... They are proper when you click on them....

Dacflyer.png If it looks okay, I'll go to spec and recalculate the resistors. Unless you want the fun :grin: That would be awsome.. I wish there was a cookbook on this LM3914/15/16 series of chips..
