This very comprehensive electronics website has many projects with useful devices. This example project is a transistor curve tracer. Go to the index and look at the many, many links. It seems to be at the ETH in Switzerland but some of the words are in ?Thai? https://www.changpuak.ch/electronics/Curve_Tracer_advanced.php#

2024-02-20 Small Modular Thorium Molten Salt Reactors Are Coming To Europe
There is one issue that all nuclear plants have and that Sabine didn’t address, and that’s the huge consumption of water that all thermal plants have. Building nuclear or any thermal plants near a source of coolant water is necessary, and that can become a major conflict when most populated areas are also near water.

2024-02-15 India To Build 30 GW Solar And Wind Facility
30 Gigawatts! They say that that’s enough to power 18 million Indian homes. This will most likely be the biggest project in the world – for quite some time. It takes about 3 million solar panels per gigawatt, so if half the 30 GW is solar, that’s 45 million solar panels. The other 15GW would

2024-02-14 Guy Spreads FUD About EVs Drawing Huge Power From Grid
This guy’s figures are deceptive. And what he says about the number of homes is not right. First off, the battery can’t take 135kW for very long, only 10 to 15 minutes. And if all four stalls have four EVs start charging at the same time, then they will split the maximum power between the

2024-02-13 Tesla To Build Largest 164 Stall Supercharging Station In California
That’s a lot of stalls! I also made a few calculations. The canopies at GF Texas have 9 by 4 = 36 solar panels. Assume each panel puts out 350 Watts. 350 * 36 = 12.6 kW. Each canopy covers 4 stalls, so 164 stalls divided by 4 = 41 canopies. 12.6 kW * 41
