Becky youre so unbelievably cool. I started off hobby engineering, then started learning sewing, seeing you so competent in both is awesome and so inspiring
man, becky just doesn't make bad videos. these are amazing tips!!
The hot glue and heat shrink tip at 6:28 is genius!
I got nearly all of those skills but never really thought of putting them together. Your video gave me some good ideas and tips. Thanks!
I've been watching your channel for as long as I can remember and followed all of your work at Adafruit.
I've used your channel to inspire many people of all walks of life .
Thank you for sharing! Keep up the good work!
TV begone! I love it!
Hot glue on the wires blew my mind. Also such a fun video
💙
Thank you Lizah!!
I love using heat shrink, and hot glue when I do a project ☺️
Great video, Becky! So many great tips and resources-and I'm not even going to make wearable tech :^) But I am trying to improve my sowing and play around with electronics.
I made an amplitie many years ago, but like you mention it stopped working properly after a few years. I never figured out the problem, but I'm guessing oxidation made the conductive thread connections unreliable. I wonder if there's a way to bring it back to life, apart from ordering new thread and redoing the whole thing?
Did you make it with steel thread? Rather than tarnishing, that stuff is more likely to spring loose over time because it's so... springy. Send me a closeup pic of some of your connections and I can provide a better assessment.
@BeckyStern Yes, it was steel thread with clear nail polish. I'll send you some closeups. Thanks!
is their a wearable project that changes tv channels in restaurants and hotels
You can reprogram the TVBGone to do that-- instead of the power signal, send a change channel signal.
thats sounds cool will have to try that one
I love this woman. She's such an inspiration and is one of the reasons I started pursuing m current degree in embedded electronics.
Great video. But I would tweak one thing. at 5:25 you said all usb power banks are 5 volts. That is not the case. USB C power banks do USB C PD and that can be several different voltages based on the connected device. there are USB C PD sink controllers for diy projects that allow for voltages like 9volt up to 20 volts.
But the device has to ask for that alternative voltage, otherwise it defaults to 5v. So they really do all supply 5v, and some additionally can supply more, as you mentioned. I didn't think a tips video like this needed the pedantry of this detail, instead trusting commenters would do that for me.
