    Liquid metal 'hot loop'

    After a little research on their site and hence googling NaK I found this: http://www.frigprim.com/articels4/LiqMetal.html It seems to be useful in comparing some of the different metals that have been mentioned here. Given the properties, if I were designing/making this, I would just have a...

    Lighting Help

    The wires you've extended are the high voltage, output wires. Seemingly minimal wire resistance, at low voltages; become great resistors at high voltage. The output of the typical inverter is about 1500Vac at about 5mA... the current directly effects the brightness, and by adding length...

    Where to buy projected capacitive (PCT) touch screen?

    A "first glance" Google search brought up Synaptics Technologies, 3M, Micro Touch and others. There are many manufactures out there, we sell them to our customers when they want one mounted to the display they buy from us, but we don't sell them in one-off quantities. I would imagine that...

    Need immediate and serious help!

    If you are going to try what I think you are going to (shutter individual sensor pixels with the LCD pixels), you are going to have to have some lensing for proportional sizes as well. The LCD will be quite easy to find, but the size and aspect of the individual pixels will most likely be...

    netsend at school : suspension

    I had been sending myself net send messages to take measurements and check on experiments that were time sensitive (at work). But, as many have pointed out, the latest service packs have disabled the service by default. So when I recently I was trying to send myself messages again...

    How to make HID wireless

    Yes, it is a print server over bluetooth, but all of the USB communication protocol is sent bi-directionally and the device works just like a USB cable without the "cable". The device we use it on here at work is a programmable video generator, and is anything but a printer. Anytime I power...

    How to make HID wireless

    AmbiCom makes a wireless USB adapter: WPKIT (think USB cable over Bluetooth). I have used this particular device, for lab equipment on one side of lab and controlling computer on other side of lab, that is the only reason I mention that particular model. I would mod the cable on the HID to...

    Vista and Map Drives

    I hope I'm not thread crapping, but my case is identical to Xyphox's and so I am also interested in a proper fix for this issue. My NAS is running a xNIX operating system... so non-windows, not just non-Vista machine. For clarification to those helping, the problem is not that the Vista...

    Vista and Map Drives

    I have the same issue at home with Vista Home Basic and my NAS, some private and some public areas on the NAS, those that are public and require no password are accessible right away, but those that are private require me to re-login each time. In other words: The map is persistent but the...

    360 directly to pc?

    Unless both the 360's LAN port and the NIC are "auto sensing", you probably just need a crossover cable to get it working.

    Took apart an extra monitor now I have questiosn

    If you look at inverters from ERG, TDK, Microsemi, Taiyo Yuden, or any other inverter manufacturer that supplies inverters meant for use on LCDs they will have the ability to adjust the brightness. I am not, and I hope that none of you are suggesting that a simple run-of-the-mill "lighting"...

    Took apart an extra monitor now I have questiosn

    Your computer's PSU can easily supply the voltages required for the Video controller board... if you completely remove the power supply board (yellow board). Then, as Mohonri suggested, you will have to get an inverter to power the backlight since the inverter is integrated into the power...

    Desperate.... Please help!

    The XP disc and the XP key have to match. Meaning that if you are using a XP retail disc you need an XP retail Key, if you are using a XP OEM disc you need an XP OEM Key, furthermore, the options expand exponentially, you have to take into account weather it is Home or Professional/retail or...

    Cathode question

    The specification for the part in the link is 12V @ 2A. Whatever current is required by your inverter times two needs to be less than 2A. Example: If the inverter is rated 12V @ 400mA then for two inverters 800mA is needed from the supply, 2A (or 2000mA) is 1.2A (or 1200mA) more than you need...

    turbo led

    I haven't had reason to, so I don't know about the new motherboards, but the old ones measured/did use the 5V for the speaker output.
