    @ThatNateGuy 10 лет назад +1

    If I may suggest a tip that will not only be helpful to new/aspiring/amateur EEs but also possibly generate more traffic and hopefully revenue for Adafruit, when showing some of the special tech like those specialized tweezers for testing continuity and probe voltmeter, maybe provide a link to such products for sale on Adafruit or some other place where we can read more.
    Awesome tutorials and site. You guys do awesome work!

    I have followed Colin for sometime. I thoroughly enjoy his electronics videos. I felt lady Ada was a little intrusive in this video. Forced if you will.

    • @zach4505
      @zach4505 11 лет назад +8

      Agreed, They are two very different styles. Collin's Lab is art just as much as informative. A fun challenge for them to see if their styles can be shared more seamlessly.

    • @imho2278
      @imho2278 3 года назад

      They have developed their pair personas...he, focussed, her, diverting his focus to her ideas. Then once she has left, he refocuses. Mildly entertaining if not carried to extremes. She acts rather like a cat, in fact....

    What if you blow up the big brown wire near the fuses, as show at 6:22 ?

    • @angeloma000
      @angeloma000 10 лет назад +1

      Replace it...

    • @johnisaaccalderon5066
      @johnisaaccalderon5066 7 лет назад

      It most likely wouldn't blow up. It's a current shunt, used to measure current, can handle huge amounts of current. It's also obvious the fuses will blow first before the shunt does.

    • @johnisaaccalderon5066
      @johnisaaccalderon5066 7 лет назад

      +Angelo You cannot replace the "wire". It's a current shunt, specialised for the multimeter.

    @automaticprojects 11 лет назад

    Fantastic! So excited these are back. Like Rene, I watched and loved all the Make ones and probably spent far too much money as a result. They made me a fan of Jameco, which is still my favorite place to buy components that Adafruit or SparkFun don't carry. So sponsoring these videos certainly paid off for them in my case.

    You can also test continuity by setting the multimeter to the lowest ohm setting (best is around 100-200 ohms). If it shows your multimeter's error code, it is not connected. If a resistance pops up, you know it is connected.

    You can also measure current by measuring resistance then dividing maximum voltage by resistance.

    • @imho2278
      @imho2278 3 года назад

      Or, r is voltage divided by current.

  • @djkoehler7882
    @djkoehler7882 11 лет назад

    You can still buy brand-new Simpson 260 meters as well as the higher accuracy 270 model. I own a 260 made in the 60's as well as one made in the 90's.
    Digital meters are great for quickly checking a voltage or measuring resistance, but if you need to tune something for peak or dip value, nothing beats an analog meter. Also, analog meters can measure voltage or current without needing batteries, so they work great as monitoring meters for long-term use.
    Anyone who works with electronics should own at least one of each, digital and analog.
