Mexicowander's new toy

Does that mean at temperatures of 40F or less, the blinkers may go

Dot Dot Dot Dash Dash Dash Dot Dot Dot?

YIKES!

Heh, it DOES look like a rooster head! Never heard them called that, but I, too, love those old fashioned tailfinny knobs. Bakelite, are they?

Edit: I shoulda read the previous page before posting. Now I gotta go top off my blinker reservoir. Do you think canola oil will work? If I go out to to NorCal I could probably get some hemp oil... that would be thicker.

Canola oil is much to thin. Instead of your blinkers going blink-blink-blink, using a thinner oil will cause them to operate as blinkblink-blink, blinkblink-blink. Or, worse yet, may operate as blink-blinkblink, blink-blinkblink.
You can just imagine the problems it causes for the person following you. All he see's is blinkety-blinkety-blinkety, and has no idea what your intensions are.

Told Jya Niner, I go walking down "Restaurant Row" in gringolandia down here and all the Blue hair restaurantettes tackle me to come inside and sample their new dishes. Brenda stumbles, tears streaming down her cheeks hanging on to Jesús. The girls show up and rescue me. Like Hobbes the Tiger, I likes huggzies and kissies. Little Dalia used to put her hands on her hips and tell the ladies "This is my grandpa" Then she would place a menacing frown on her face.

There's a lot of er ah -stuff- jammed inside that retired SOLA box now. Like a neglected housewife who decides to rearrange the living room furniture during the Superbowl, I have stripped the Shottky rectifier and hear sink, the shunt, and terminal block and making more room. The front and rear panels remain the same. The electroswitch and two vernier count Bourns pots go on top. The 6-hour timer switch also stays on the rear. The two post stainless steel handle goes on top primarily to protect the chicken head and vernier dials. Going to wire the useless volt gauge as a differential gauge between the two outputs before power passes through the Shottky rectifiers. More N one way to get a cat buck naked.

Lucas brings new meaning to the words 'light my fire'.

Does that read like a Judith McNaught romance novel to you?

I'll have to let him explain what the heck it does, features, ratings, amps, Volts, etc. Probably BORG power supply related is my guess.

Looks like a razor for that hairy body part. :)

I guess Mex still gets excited by big rooster head knobs on his electrical toys.

Where are you gonna fit that on the BORG Box?

In other news, are you going to be happy with a lowly PF of .70 on your MegaWatt Power supply units?

Whazzat you say?

Can't hear you

Speak louder over the roar...

C-O-O-L-I-N-G!!!




The Delta "Mega Fast" 120mm x 38mm Fan is a staggeringly powerful 120 mm fan. The fan kicks out 252 cubic feet of air every minute - one fan can cool an entire system with ease. Of course, at 66.5 dBA, it is hardly quiet - but who can argue with a better than 4:1 airflow to noise ratio? You can choose to add a 4 Pin fan connector with a 3 Pin RPM connector in the options below, and get the power lead sleeved as well!
