Joules:
Still not enough, for these bloody heatsinks...

I just received another kit for xmas, the component tester.
I must be a sucker for punishment  :bang:

I must say, the assembly instructions are underwhelming to say the least.
most of it seems clear enough, did you have any problems assembling yours?


cheers

Roy.

EDIT.

I just found an online pdf instruction sheet, it's in chinglish but meh.

Hi Roy


 :lol: :lol: :lol: aye there not the best instructions , mine went together with only two problems   :zap:   , first was a faulty battery lead ,so I had to replace that , and the second was down to me

not being able to find the on/off switch  :palm:  ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, you have to press the rotary encoder  :bang:


My function generator kit arrived today ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, it needs a +12 -12 and 5v power supply to run it  :zap:


Cheers Rob


PS John ,Joules I  have some 6.3mm carbon arc rods    :lol:

Make sure you use a big enough iron with a decent tip but dont overheat the components...... :lol:

no worries there I have a soldering station that goes from 200 to 480 C with a selection of tips. also some 0.46 dia solder.

Roy,

Hi Rob
which kit did you get, it sounds a bit fussy needing various voltages.
do you have a power supply in mind?  I know computer power supplies give +12 and +5, I don't know about -12 tho.

thanks for the heads up on the battery connector, I'll test mine first, I've ordered the case for it as well but it hasn't arrived yet.

Hi Roy

Cheers for tip about  the computer power supply  :thumbup:

You going all up market on us and getting the case   :clap: :clap:


There is a wee circuit diagram for a power supply in the instructions , so now I have the fun of learning about voltage regulators and the likes , just another project  :zap:


Maybe I should  take more notice of what I am actually purchasing , ,,,,,,,,,,,narh I like the letter box Russian roulette      :lol:



Rob

PS   Cheers for the  tip about  the computer power supply  :thumbup:
