2024-03-12 Keeping The Grid In Balance
At the end he said “… keeping the grid in balance with millions of tons of spinning inertia.” Well, this is now being simulated by the electronics in the battery energy storage systems and other electronics. It’s called VMM – virtual machine mode. Soon, there will be very few thermal power plants left after all

2024-03-11 Flexible LED Filaments
Some information on what current and resistors to use. The LEDs are all in parallel and need about 3 Volts, current limited with a resistor. https://www.facebook.com/reel/909951727389682?mibextid=9drbnH&s=yWDuG2&fs=e
2024-03-09 Big Clive’s Old Tungsten Roadwork Beacon – Barricade Flasher
I built this “tungsten roadwork beacon” as Clive calls it, using the parts given in my schematic (photo below). I didn’t have a 6V, 90 mA lamp, so I simulated it by using three 20 ohm, 1/4 Watt resistors in series, which gives 60 ohms and 100 mA load with 6VDC. For an indicator I

2024-04-06 The Flexible LED Filament
This YouTube short demos a flexible LED filament and shows how to configure it for 5VDC.
2024-03-03 Video Game Uses Switch Port Lights
Someone must’ve written a program that runs on a switch and plays a video game like PacMan using the port lights. https://www.facebook.com/reel/236966269492966?mibextid=9drbnH&s=yWDuG2&fs=e
2024-03-02 Climate Change Greatest Market Failure In Human History
Dr. Naomi Oreskas says that the former chief economist of the World Bank said that Climate Change is the greatest and most wide ranging market failure in human history. Costing 1.5 Trillion Dollars every single year.
2024-03-01 Elon’s Plan To Power The USA
Well, Elon never said it was a plan. He just calculated that there are about 750 watts per square meter at the latitude of the middle of the US. The solar panels are about 20% efficient. So 1/5 of 750 is 150. The US needs about 1300 gigawatts of power. So divide that by 150
