    A physical representation of the ROFLcopter!

    I would like to be the first to present a physical representation of the ROFLcopter to the [H] community. Prelude: Holidays are a little slow at work so I had some time, plus some random crap laying around. So I felt it was necessary to build the (drum roll) ROFLcopter! the main structure is...

    Allright, an update since someone was asking about it... I have encountered tons of setbacks since the last post. The rails I ordered for the servers were too long for the rack. I tried to find shorter ones, however no one had them in stock for 3 weeks. After being patient I finally found...

    APC Direct Buy Refurb UPS Systems

    If you asking about the retrobox batteries, you make a good point. I don't beleive they are refurbished, just working pulls. And im not so sure about the "attached equiptment protection" warranty or whatever its called. I didn't even think about that, so it may not be as good of a deal as I...

    APC Direct Buy Refurb UPS Systems

    Have you guys checked out www.retrobox.com ? I got a 2200 VA rackmount APC for $64. I had to pay to have it shipped by freight ($134) for a total of $198. I was pretty impressed, and they test everything before shipping it out so it works great and batteries are in good shape too.

    Ok...I finished the mount for the Javelin terminal today. Hopefully now everyone will see what I was trying to accomplish. As I said before I cut a piece of metal out of the door scrap because it has bracing on the back and the javelin terminal is heavy. Then I cut holes for the cables and...

    Rack Project

    It's time for an update. Ok so I was all excited because I devised a way to wire the touchscreen of the javelin termal to a motion sensor. I found the pinouts of the touchscreen and I could jump two pins with a wire to make it think it was being touched. Now to solve the problem of the motion...

    Yeah, LCP's are nice. I think those even have USB which would have made my fan controlling delema less challenging. But what fun would this be if I didn't have to come up with creative solutions? As far as servers im probably going to run two servers. Mostly for home network related things...

    Yeah...I have been trying to get a mouse to work with this turd for a while, the PS/2 port only takes a keyboard and im trying to wire a RJ45 to serial as we speak. However I dont think the screen wakes up with a mouse because its in the bios. The only way I have been able to get the screen to...

    Now I have some questions for whomever feels like answering them. First off I had another interesting idea. Since I just put a new CCFL in the javelin terminal I don't want the screen to be on 24/7 so I can set the terminal to turn the screen off after so many minutes of inactivity, easy...

    I fixed the LCD in the Javelin terminal (again). Hopefully this time the CCFL will stay gassy and work for more than three days.... My old soldering iron is 40 watts which is alot more than needed, and actually ruined my last CCFL. So I got a dual watt soldering iron, set it to 15 watts and...

    I have powered up one of them, they are extremely quiet. I just hope they will produce enough air flow. I think I mentioned it earlier but I had some monsterous panaflos going in there. My roomates bedroom is right next to the closet where the rack is, I don't think he would be able to sleep...
