I have the WESD 51 and would have to agree... Its reliable and works, but I wouldn't buy it again. Theres better value irons to be had. I've got 3 spydercos (which are great) but my current EDC is a Benchmade Mini-Grip 555HG (w/spydie hole of course! :D ) I've had a Red Troodon on my wishlist...

I thought all of mine were rtl8192cu... I just double checked and the adaptor Im using now is RT5370. =/ While its sometimes a real chore to get it connected, the RT5370 has proven to be MUCH more reliable once it "warms up". :confused:

Under Network > Interfaces do you have a instance of eth0 setup to accept a DHCP? I recall reading that that can cause issues... I'm having the same problems with 3 separate dongles. (all rtl8192cu) I suspect my problem may be related to roaming on my dual router/AP WDS setup. You wouldn't...

Hey a Spyderco! You've got some nice tools there!

I think I tried that and ended up doing it the other way since LCD & web page didn't display the probe as "Pit". I could be be wrong though... :confused: Anywho, this is useful info if your thermocouple ever craps out and you don't have a backup on hand! For those interested, heres where I...

I did this last week as i didn't have a thermocouple, but wanted to play around with the HM. I think I just swapped the pin assignments in hmcore.h, compiled in the arduino ide and uploaded via the web flash page.

That board looks totally salvageable imo. I would recommend: - Gently scrape the carbon off with a xacto. - Clean remaining carbon & flux residue with a trimmed acid brush (like this) and 91% isopropyl alcohol. - Remove remaining solder with solder wick. - Replace any damaged traces with wire...

http://n1hq.no-ip.org/ First cook on new HeaterMeter! Pork Ribs Low & Slow! :cool:

Hi. I have a 20x2 VFD attached to a old windows xp machine that displays weather info via LCDSmartie 24/7. I'd like to include data from the HeaterMeter while its running, but unfortunately, LCDSmartie isn't smart enough to parse JSON data and I'm not smart enough to figure out how to code a...

Here ya go: Dip Micro: Female Color Ribbon Flat Cable Jumper Dupont 40-Wire 20cm 1P-1P 2.54mm These were the closest I could find at Mouser pre-terminated: Link (not ribbon)

Thanks! I avoid ordering from Newark whenever possible.

interesting find... i have a NMB blower i picked up at goodwill a while back. took a look at the board where the wires connect and noticed a 4th pad. hmm... soldered a wire to the pad and connected it to a pot (0-5v) and sure enough it varied the output! bad thing is that 0V doesn't shutdown the...

many of the newer pc fans/blowers have control circuitry built-in. variable voltage, pwm or signal from a thermistor applied to the input lead will vary the fan speed. http://www.nmbtc.com/dc-fans/e...g/speed-control.html

i seem to have isolated a couple of my issues! the chip wasn't quite seated properly in the dip socket & a ribbon cable was improperly crimped by the manufacturer. 2-wire is working at the moment on my mock-up! last night after lots of soldering and meter beeps, i finally decided it was time...

thats great news ed! i've been a fan dd-wrt for many years. i have a original la fonera that should be up to the task. -sj

rj, the main problem i see with the pic serial controller is when you forget to unplug it before uploading code to the arduino. its pretty easy to corrupt the firmware when dumping a new sketch to your board. (ask me how i know ) reflashing the pic requires a pic programmer. the other obvious...

thanx bryan, that all makes sense! i've been suspicious of this 2wire library for a while now... i have another project that has been plagued with elusive timing issues that no-one else seems to have trouble with. i just finished up a 3-wire shiftreg board and grabbed a 74ls164 from another...

heatermeter.cpp ? i think you meant heatermeter.pde, but yea, i tried that and no luck. right now, its displaying a single line of blocks similar to what john described a few pages back. i might give the 3 wire design a go... =/ -sj

alright, new arduino loaded up. ShiftRegLCD works fine with the hello world example. same setup is not displaying in heatermeter 39. any thoughts? cheers! -sj
