VLC is blacklisting recent Huawei devices to combat negative app reviews | 220v Contactor Relay

A hobbyist should not screw with a Triac on house wiring if it will be “permanently” installed in a junction box. Make an adapter that plugs into a socket on the outside so that it is clear it is not a normal outlet. If you have to homebrew something like this use a good relay or contactor with a UR approval. AND read the spec on it thoroughly.

McConnell, however, has said he doesn’t see any threat of Trump firing Mueller, and he indicated Tuesday that he would “probably block” the bill from coming to the floor if Flake pushed it a second time. On the other hand, Majority Whip John Cornyn has previously signaled that there could be an openness to considering the legislation to keep things moving on judicial nominees, especially as the Senate seeks to wrap business up toward the end of the year.

one of my least favorite shocks is a phone ringing. I was fixing a socket one night about 11p and thought ‘no one will call this late’ and didnt bother to disconnect it. got a nice zap from that and the ringing has a nice pulse to it that really gets your jumping.

While room up front is generous, and boosted by a wide range of seat and steering wheel adjustment, rear knee and head space is tight. Toyota openly admits it has designed the car predominantly around the needs of a two-person family unit, reasoning that anyone with kids would buy the estate. Exaggerating that outlook, our test car was fitted with an optional sunroof that ate 22mm of headroom.

A lot of info: The Sony A33′s EVF display conveys loads of info, but the Fn menu items (shown here at the left and right edge) require a low eyepoint or eye movement to take in. (Image courtesy Sony USA.)

It’s a great idea but a shame it isn’t laid out correctly, The traces on the low voltage side of the opto-couple are too close to the mains voltage and also the trace from resistor R8 to the opto is too close as well.

This is the sort of topic where it wouldn’t be a great idea to be dismissive of textbooks and/or formal instruction. Often local power line crews will put on a safety demonstration at hamfests. No doubt they would do the same for the various builder/hacker/maker spaces

The LCD improvement I found most the most dramatically useful was the brightness settings. Set to Auto brightness, the camera will brighten or dim the LCD display in response to ambient light. This helps a good bit in bright daylight, but the display still washes out in direct sunlight. If you’re shooting in bright sun, though, check out the Sony A33′s "Sunny Weather" LCD brightness setting. Wow – That’s a really bright display! It does blow out the top end of the display’s tone curve (that is, you won’t see any detail in the highlights in your images in this mode), but this is the first time I can honestly say that I had no trouble viewing a camera’s LCD screen in direct sunlight. It’s a really great feature, although I’m sure it further reduces the Sony A33′s already-short battery life.

You can get the domestic radio-controlled switchers, 15 UK Pounds for a set of 3 including remote. Think it’s standard 433MHz. Admittedly not Wifi but a little hub to convert the two wouldn’t be much problem. The point being all the nasty stuff’s pre-manufactured and you don’t even have to touch it once it’s plugged in. A stray radio wave’s much less likely to burn your house down, and an insurer can’t blame you for using units you bought from a reputable store. Though check for the relevant safety markings just to be sure.

Nah, they’re just creating the latest OpenSource platform as Arduino LCC, Arduino iso, Arduino Inc and Arduino & Co. fight over which is the real Shady.
