https://www.facebook.com/share/r/1MqEUa6oyN/ A bad design that for most control range LEDs are off, then there is some brightness control and then turn a little bit more and you have your LEDs fried. Trying to control LED brightness without series resistor by adjusting voltage going to then is a bad design. The LM317 should have been configured →

A non-contact voltage tester (NCVT) is a handheld electrical tool used to quickly and safely detect the presence of AC voltage in wires, outlets, switches, and electrical devices—without touching any bare conductor. It uses capacitive coupling: when you bring the tip close to a live conductor, the tester senses the electric field generated by AC →
Yesterday marked 34 years since Linus Torvalds, then a young computer science student, announced in the comp.os.minix newsgroup that he was working on a new operating system — “just a hobby, nothing big or professional like GNU,” as he put it. In hindsight, one of the most ironic understatements in tech history. The first Linux →

I saw this bad circuit posted to Facebook: It at quick glance looks like a FET based solid state relay (SSR) design to control 230V AC. But actually it is not suitable for the application at all. If you connect the circuit like shown, it will not work as planned and many components will be →
