The following instructions detail how to build a simple pummer using a BC2 (Bicore) BEP (Bicore Experimenter PCB). A pummer is a solar powered self activating LED flasher. The difference between a pummer and a BLFNAR (blinky light for no apparent reason) is that a pummer has a soft turn off, which means that it turns on fast, but slowly fades away.
New Product: Limerick Edition

I've been wanting to post in limerick, and today I think I'll give it a kick. My co-workers think it's dumb, but I think it's kinda fun. And I'm sure it'll turn out quite slick.
In order to avoid some tough restrictions, I won't use limerick for product descriptions. It'd also make some people sick, and want to beat me with a stick. So I'll switch to normal verse to avoid any conniptions.
This week we have a fancy new video clip, that's a demo for a nifty new LED strip. It's wrapped around in a spool, and looks pretty darn cool. There's also links down below you shouldn't skip.

How's that for ease of use? |

Switching Power Supply 5V @ 20A $20.00 When we talk about some of our power supplies & adapters being beefy or buff, sorry, we lied! This Switching Power supply is the Granddaddy of them all, it supplies 5V at 20Amps. |
This is all we got for this Friday afternoon, and we'll be off for the weekend quite soon. We hope you've quite enjoyed this (questionable) poetic employ, and that you don't get crushed by a meteorological balloon.

Bio-Bugs Press Release
NEW YORK - February 12, 2001 - The WowWee Toy division of Hasbro, Inc. today introduced the first toy line to incorporate advanced "nervous network" technology. New B.I.O.

Heated Car Seat Teardown and Repair
Here's a little makeover of an inexpensive aftermarket car seat heating pad that stopped working. Designed to activate and warm up when sat upon, the electronics face a fair amount of abuse: since the seat is a soft frame, the wires inside constantly move and flex with the body. They are also subject to harsh […]
