Aeka 2.0 posted:a sequential setup just sounds like an expensive nightmare that I don't want to deal with. I'm not even running ball bearing because of cost right now. Precision Turbo has pretty scoocum housings that I'm using and my target is just "better than it was." I'm very la dee dah about it all. I just want it to run well and look good. Skookum. And one out of two isn't bad.

Running 2A at 15V, they'll probably last. Lots of cycles or higher loads, probably not. It's not like you're cheeping out on other poo poo. If trust a TE or Eaton much more, especially if they're automotive-rated.

Gotta love a manufacturer gently caress up. Just RC decay on those signals, too.

Capture some signals on your scope and head over to the learning electronics megathread! https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=2734977

Aeka 2.0 posted:gently caress yeah, thanks. And you thought car poo poo was a black hole... If you want a good YouTube series to watch that's somewhat entertaining, EEVBlog is a good start. I started watching Dave years and years ago, and I've learned a lot from him. I really like his teardowns, because he's good at recognizing the different functional blocks and that poo poo makes troubleshooting your own stuff so much easier. If you've got a power problem, there's no reason to spend your first troubleshooting efforts on, say, a logic section. His accent is a hot/cold thing, and I don't mind it at all. His catchphrases can be annoying, but it's like AvE, you learn to ignore them or you stop watching. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=channel?UC2DjFE7Xf11URZqWBigcVOQ Fundamentals Friday are a good start, as is this playlist: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DMXiD3dKYJc Other channels: ProtoG FranLab W2AEW MrCarlson'sLab (He's not a serial killer, I promise) AfroTechMods There are dozens more.

Aeka 2.0 posted:Should we be honored that Banks was a total dick to everyone involved in this? He's awesome. The Hoonigans are morons (talented morons, but morons regardless), and the people they hired are scammers who know next to nothing about diesel tuning. Sorry the Redline name got dragged through the mud. Smoke tune Bros should be dragged behind their obnoxiously loud and dirty trucks. sharkytm fucked around with this message at 14:53 on May 8, 2020 |

Aeka 2.0 posted:Stop me if i'm wrong. But it seems most of the quality of air has been coming with new vehicle regulations and not the guy with the built motor. It's all additive. One jackass with a smoke-spewing diesel doesn't wreck the air nationwide, but the two on my street can be smelled for 15+ minutes every time they pass by. They're putting out 200x more pollutants than my stock Duramax because they want loud smoky trucks. Both are new, too. One Ford, one Dodge... Day one deleted and "tuned". You should read a bit about the Port of Oakland and the health effects on predominantly minority-occupied neighborhoods. from the constant stream of truck and ship traffic. They've made big strides cleaning things up, but there's a way to go. Sadly, the law has to cover everyone, not just those that abuse the system. Do I think CARB regs are over the top? Yes. Do I understand why they got passed into law? Yes. It sucks, but the rules are the rules. Register out of state, user a freight forwarder, or smuggle that poo poo yourself because commercial companies are going to comply with the law regardless of how dumb it is.

Jesus. What a bunch of morons. Did they even test the firmware? Glad rolling it back took care of the problem.

Aeka 2.0 posted:Rebuilt engine runs. Paint started to go and I opted for a color change. To stay low key, goodbye red. I may have some photos in a bit. I am doing the color change panel by panel. The color between panels match as I'm not doing any crazy metallics or anything, I was really worried that the color wouldn't match by painting it this way, but it is actually looking good. Plus I don't get any tape lines or bullshit half measured this way. Just a huge pain in the rear end. RISE MY SON! Glad to see you're still around and the car is being worked on. Photos would be great!
