20241208 Lighting for the AndersFP Blaster Pt.25 – Starting Production Pt. 04: Of Thermal Printers & Impulse Sealers
I can see myself getting closer to the finishing line and I’m pushing for release by January 2025. I wanted to release this my mid-2024 but in my pursuit of a longer lasting system and using a 3D printed solution, this delay costs me time. Financially, it is quite significant since I am still depending […]

Phew. Soldering the Boards is time consuming! I have been soldering and programming the Boards after coming home from work for the last three weeks. Soldering a few boards can be fun but multiply that and the fun goes away rather quickly. I have a very systematic approach to producing these boards something which confirms […]
20241116 The Zero Ohm Resistor
I have come across this resistor in some boards and mostly, from the Internet. My mind was thinking, why, of all things, do you need a zero resistance component on a circuit board? This weird component comes in both through-hole and SMD packages too. But for this post, I am concentrating on the surface mount […]
