    [FS] BULLETPROOF Laser Shades (US MILITARY ISSUE) For real

    Yeah, But they wil stop up to a .15 Cal. bullet..... W.T.F. is a .15 Cal. bullet?? Munchkin Reserve National Guard standard issue munitions?? The smallest firearm caliber which I am aware of is .17 and that ain't nowhere near a military caliber. Hell, even flechettes were bigger than .15 In...

    Thinklasers.com?

    That's because they are a US 'outlet' (read kitchen table, nothing instock) for Wicked. Took me over seven months to get two laser pointers and neither of them worked without surgery when they had finally arived. The ONLY good thing that I can say about then is that the pointers DID finally...

    JDSU 2110U-SLCPEB died. "Dim" LEDs, slow fan.

    How many fuses on the input side? If both legs are fused and one blew, you could be drawing half voltage in and returning through ground?

    Rethinking our approach to the DDL?

    Ray, Because we cannot 'measure' the infinitely large, or infinitely small, does that mean that it does not exist? Your posts are most stimulating. Much enjoyed. Where would I buy an IC regulator which can be configured as a constant current source, with zero drop out, or voltage loss??

    Rethinking our approach to the DDL?

    Super conductors DO NOT have zero resistance, they have near zero (too low to 'measure') resistance. You will have NO electron flow (current) without the potential to push the electrons (voltage). If you 'measure' an electromagnetic field, guess what you are using to make the measurement and...

    Small Modification to LM317 Drivers

    SOG, Well, sorta... A LED is a Diode (that emits light, Light Emitting Diode, LED). The reversed diode will not pass voltage below it's breakdown voltage level, so it will BLOCK voltage from a reversed battery. But forward biased, you have to overcome the diode's forward voltage drop to...

    An idea for a MOSFET driver

    Kmor, Nice tool! Good work and +1 for the lecture.

    An idea for a MOSFET driver

    NO, A boost regulator uses 'Switched' DC fed to an inductor to 'boost' the voltage, via induction, and usually charge a capacitor. Theload then draws from the cap. The MOSFET is a pass element. Does not boost or amplify anything (beyond, maybe, the gate current...). Get a BOOST regulator...

    What's happened to LPF?

    I'm a NOOB, I'm a stupid NOOB. I've gotten bashed fo stupid statements and maybe stupid questions, but I stayed because I wanted to learn. and, I'm STILL gonna ask stupid questions. It would be nice if a NOOB didn't get bashed for being stupid, or not knowing how to use the search function...

    1W 808nm for night vision

    Fiddy, Your 'onboard' illuminator is, most probablly, a super-high output I.R. LED. They can usually be focused to a fairly narrow beam for 'spotting'. But, the lasers will work O.K. too. An aside note,,, if you are attempting jacklighting, as well as being illegal, whitetails can see some...

    Help with I.D.'ing Laser Diode

    It looks like some 7-10mW reds I've pulled. Fun to play with, but not too usefull. It'll take 20-50mA @3V, without a sink, for short periods (15-20 sec.s). Looking at the back of the of the case 3 pins (1 @ 12 o'clock, 2 @ 3 o'clock, & 3 @ 6 o'clock) pin 1 = +, pin 2 = GND, pin 3 =...

    Rethinking our approach to the DDL?

    It's boiling down to a battle of semantics and perceptions. Ohm's law describes a set of relationships to us, but neither controls nor dictates anything beyond those relationships. The relationships are proven by physics: Voltage is the potential (the preasure pushing the electrons), Current...

    So, If I wanted a $16 guidesman, how would I go about ordering? They don't show up in your inventory.

    Is it possible to make burning Laser from Computer?

    Siopao, the little green bar at the bottom of that funny box on the left means that thier "small meaningless existances' are not as small as yours. They are harsh on everybody new who comes on here and makes STUPID mistakes and comments (I've made my share, so I can speak with some authority on...
