hey thanks for the replies guys! I think i'd be able to fit in 4 x AAAA or 2 x CR2's - the problem is with the CR123's fatness - i have enough length to fit two of those in, but the enclosure is unusuall and curves in at the sides, so the edges arnt wide enough to have 2 CR123's. which one do...

Just an afterthought.. if four button cell's wont do it for some reason, eg. capacity too low, would it be possible/advisable to connect one CR123 to two button cells in series to get the correct voltage, and sufficient capacity? thanks again

hey guys, i would like to squeeze my gb diode into a small enclosure, and i was wondering if i would be able to use any smaller battery size than AA and CR123 ( i am using daedals circuit design and need at least 6 volts). Would it be possible for me to hook 4 watch batteries in series to...

woo im just waiting till au dollar is 1:1 with the us... imagine...buying ipods as cheap as the US price in AU dollars...drool... so i was wondering say hypothetically, the au dollar and us dollar was 1:1. and say the Au dollar vs the GBP was 3:1 and the US dollar vs the GBP was 4:1 (4 US...

haha i sold my psp start of this year and a nigerian scammer won. i gave a second chance offer to the next guy and he accepted so it was all good haha funny, i ended up getting more than i bought it for.. version 1.5's were getting rare haha

haha thanks marianne your probably right, im no expert edit: ok i changed that statement

hey austrazillian, :D i was a humble noob from australia a few weeks ago, but i think im quite sure i have things worked out now... 8-) first, as death angel said, this forum is excellent, it has ALL the information you need, i used NO other source. I too saw kipkays video, and i somehow...

you can take the LM317T and the 1N400x i guess if it is an LM317T and 1N4004 in the first pic

Re: how do I install the diode in the aixiz module haha i dont have a vice i might try that then

WOAH DUDE the same thing happened to me, only i had LED's as the test load, and i was using a 9v battery actually it was weired, this was a few weeks ago and i noticed the batt was getting EXTREMELY hot when i was using it.. like burning to touch. so i keep using it, enjoying the warmth...

phew ok good so the pot is regulating current? i saw a post in daedals thread that said it was regulating voltage...which got me confused.. thanks again dil

WOOO thanks a lot guys especially daedal, chimo and gazoo, seriously guys i could have never worked this out without you guys i love this forum everyone is so helpful haha special thanks to daedal for helping me so much with the flu, get well soon! thanks again guys cya dil p.s shoud i...

haha thanks dude lawl damn i just replaced the 1n4004 haha hmm but shouldnt i be getting like 3 volts out the other end (i.e across the load)? and would it be safe for me to discharge the cap and attach the LD now? also, to discharge the cap, we just connect the positive and negative terminals...

ok new measurements: 1.25 volts across resistors in parrallel 1.25 across vout and adj pins 1.97 across load 5.83 across power source 1.99 across 1N4004 1.99 across the two huge globs of solder hmm that means the 1N4004 is broken right

whoops didnt see Daedals reply hmm it seems to be working now, but do you think i still have dead components? ill just go remeasure with the new load.. still stumped as to why the LED load did not work.. Chimo is there something unusual about LED loads that made you suggest using resistors, or...
