  • What ever happened to the Maxim Chip?

    A few years back this article came out: Has Maxim Just Killed The Microinverter & DC Optimiser? Although this article probably does a better job explaining it: https://www.solarquotes.com.au/blog/solar-panel-optimisation/ It was big news at the time. Jinko “Eagle MX”, Hanwa...
  • Graphene Ultracapacitor now the same $/lifecycle as LiFePO4?

    UPDATE: This is probably a bogus product as described. Possibly some sort of hybrid mix of a supercapitor and lithium cell. Looks like supercapacitors have made a big graphene jump forward: Stored Energy: 75 Wh Cost ($/Wh): 1.00 to $0.69 (bulk buy) (LiFePO4 is ~$.15/Wh) Leak current: < 20...

  • Kite power

    Forbisher's recent post made me wonder about the state of self-flying kites/devices for wind generation, anyone playing around with these? Lot's of kites and parafoil kites on Amazon. Can any of those even fly themselves as wind conditions change? Seems more ideal... a decorative kite...
  • Vehicle washer tank miracle

    The water tank reservoir for my car's wipers is leaking. Turns out replacing it is an ordeal (e.g., the front bumper and other junk all has to come off). Long shot... but figured I'd ask if anyone knows of a miracle fix. It's buried pretty far in there, can barely see any of it from the top.
  • CC2531

    Texas Instruments CC2531 is a 2.4 GHz transceiver (datasheet, user's guide). The 2.4 GHz frequency is used by ZigBee, WiFi, Bluetooth, baby monitors, cordless phones, speakers, microphones, microwave ovens and probably other stuff. As such, the chip has a lot of uses, especially in IoT! The...
