Hey, I thought this thread was for psychological help, what's with all this idle chit-chat?

Dear Gummy, I need help with my affliction. I have made 3 mods in the past 4 nights .... It's interfering with my sleep .. I close my eyes and try counting mods, but it doesn't help.

I'M GETTING TIRED!!! :blink::?::p

Dear can't sleep,
A good while back I prescribed for one of our other patients to place a TI 4050 chip under his pillow. He reported back that it worked like a charm. Some cases may require 2 of them.

I think that makes me the pharmacist, seeing as how I have a handful of them(only a few were samples). They are like amoxicillan, good for just about everything you put them in.

Hehe, everything I post seems to be in the wrong place today, but since you asked...

It's pretty simple really. I just charge the cell all the way then load it with a big 1 Ohm wire-wound resistor mounted to an aluminum plate to sink the heat. Time it to minimum voltage in hours or fractions thereof and multiply by average current to get capacity in mAh. The voltage isn't constant so I have to do a best guess integration for average current. Gets me close enough for my purposes. I'm ony checking the cells are working as expected so it doesn't have to be precise.

Sorry Gummy, back on topic now :)

Dear it won't work for long,

Anyone can stop a speeding bullet, but only Superman can do it more than ONCE. Same with batteries.

But I guess getting dud batteries for a future mod is about the same thing as carrying the three 510 atty connectors.
If you felt better after getting them, Then it's OK.

Just for the sake of another thread derailment...:p

I have a co-worker who stopped 5 bullets from a MAK-90 on February 24, 2005. He'll never be 100% again, but he's back on the job.

Sorry, Dr. Gummy. I'll report to Nurse Cratchet now for my "treatment."

What is that, braile?

I could not get to page 26 of this thread, so I made a post in the thread and was then able to get to page 26.



Edit ot add;

I tried the obvious (cleared cache and cookies, reboot, log out and back in) and I still couldn't get to page 26, so I posted and that worked...

Dear needs to maintain your computer...flush your cache and cookies...and if its a phone...well... go get yourself a tablet...phones are for calls not web...

and now back to our regularly scheduled program...

Dr Gummy I cant get over this constantly stumbling upon assorted innovative if not a little wonky circuit designs...I seem to keep accidentally creating solutions to problems while trying to achieve something entirely different...

The same happened to me earlier when Mudflap's was the only post on the page. Every try to get to page 26 would automatically stick me back in page 25. I think this waiting room is haunted! I would swear that plastic palm tree in the corner just winked at me... or was that an led flashing?
