Welcome mate! I am slightly skeptical of your slodering skills... ;) Personally I would ditch that module and buy one from fasttech. Those Dealextreme modules never output what they are rated for. Buy this instead, it's only 5 bucks and they can output over 100mw in some cases, they are dirt...

Lovely wavelength Diachi! It's been so long since I did a build I need to get back into the swing of things :beer:

Holy shit Grainde those are spectacular! How many times have you been to Australia? :whistle: Here's another one from Mackenzie Lake.

Another shot from NZ on the Routeburn track :)

Thanks for using my image :p 500px Heifer Angus Cross Some amazing shots here RB, Arcticdude, lazerman121, Alaskan! I've just bought my first full sized tripod so can't wait to start experimenting :D Zomei Q666 Tripod monopod I've since moved to Sydney this year for uni so hoping to get a...

Double post ;) It's about to piss down... Click for high res

That first pic is amazing Arcticdude! Love the lens flare :beer: You continue to impress with your photography skills in the beams thread and now even more so! Keep them coming :D

What more is there to say... Only that your 3D CAD skills are beyond ridiculous! (ridiculously amazing ;)) Amazing job Arcticdude.

Wow, I've seen some of your shots before but damn! Fantastic work Aardvark :D I've got lots more photos from NZ so hopefully I'll post more soon as well :beer:

I've posted this one already but looking for opinions on how this one turned out. I've just started editing RAW images in Adobe lightroom and can say its quite enjoyable! Here's the unedited image. Edited image is below ;) I try and view editing as an attempt to create a truer representation of...

Thanks so much Andrew! I'm so glad you're enjoying them :D I hope to better my skills as I (slowly :p) try and climb up the photography learning curve. Here's another shot just outside of Mackenzie lake. We started hiking and the early morning light was streaming onto the mountains we had only...

Well at this point it's looking abundantly clear I won't be using this for any sensitive electronics. The one hobby that I've seen this unit adopted as relatively widespread is on the flashlight forums. Using them to drive at a max load of 100W or so most members typically opt for the cheaper...

Thanks Paul! New Zealand's mountainous terrain changes very frequently within just a short 80km radius. From beaches, to beatiful fjords, to snow capped mountains all within a days hike! Really is such a unique place to go. Long time no see 00Giorge! Good to see you back :beer: Please post...

I should have been clearer about the power supply I would use. True there are no 60V 20A DC power supplies for $40 anywhere that I know of. My current plan is to use a 48V 10A power supply which are readily available for roughly $42 US. This obviously means that you won't be able to utilise the...

Yep everything you mentioned was brought to my attention when I first started looking for a PS :) A big old second-hand linear power supply really would be ideal, but being so heavy makes shipping expensive and name brand 2nd-hand quality units are extremely scarce (basically non-existent) in...

Well over a year and a half later my hunt continues for a cheap, reliable and capable variable power supply. As one can imagine all those requirements rarely go together... However I believe I may have found a viable option that if proven reliable enough for LD's would no doubt have a lot of...

Just posted in the nature thread about our adventures in NZ and thought I'd post some more appropriate images here ;)

Incredible shots RB! It's been awhile, hope everyone enjoyed their Christmas break :beer: Just got back from NZ after completing the Queen Charlotte track, Routeburn track and Kepler. Below is just a small taste of what we saw and experienced, was truly an adventure I'll never forget! Lots...

Incredible shots Grainde :D When did you do the Great Ocean Road?! The week long coastal walk along that region is one of my favorite hikes so far! Amazing shots of Uluru as well :beer: I am still yet to go there but it is definitely on my bucket list! Here's a few shots of a lily I did a few...

Nice shot Lazerman! Awesome perspective as well, I almost feel like I'm dreaming :D Here's a shot from our recent trip to Sydney on Bronte beach, just south of Bondi.
