The problem with connectors Ever since (the Jurassic Period?) I realised that the intended spring connectors have a very serious weakness, I opted to go with a more no nonsense ‘traditional’ screw terminals. Which is great except that it takes up much more space than the former terminals. I have spent the whole day trying […]

20240804 1/6th Proton Pack: Revision v004D
While waiting for the arrival of the PDK2019 Ghost Charger Board and some LiPo batteries, I re-started the Proton Pack project less I forget what I did the last time. With the microcontroller and most of the components plus LEDs soldered, it is time for me to move on to the software stage. Listen… you […]
20240802 Lighting for the AndersFP Blaster Pt.08
You know, I was supposed to get this version 5.01 out by last weekend but I did not. This was because in the Forum, some did ask about if the PCB can be used in a Tomenosuke Blaster. At that time, I was not too confident about this after a short chat with another Blade […]
20240714 New Test Programming Clips
In the beginning, during the prototyping stages, I tend to rely on the prototyping breadboards a lot. These breadboards are essential because they would be the basis on how the actual PCB would be designed from. 1. Translating the circuit onto the breadboard. When I draw up a circuit on paper, it was fun. To […]
