    Guys Always Lose

    Re: Guys Always Loose Women, you can't live with them, you can't live with them... One of the guys I used to work with had a saying, "If they didn't have c&%$s we would throw stones at them".

    LASORB usage (with 445nm)

    Capacitors also mess up modulation in projectors... The lasorb only kicks in when a spike above the threshold appears. otherwise, they have no effect on modulation and performance. The lasorb is wired in parallel with the LD, so "gounding" is not an issue and you *could* use them in portables...

    Weller still the soldering iron of choice?

    Cool. You wont regret it. I would try that ribbon at around 650-700F. Sensitive parts like cooler temps, however too cool and you need the heat on there longer. It is a double edge sword.

    Women just don't get it. It's the same with my wife, she doesn't get the lasers, the smoke machine, the computers, the gizmos.
