FIVE-BAND EQUALIZER

FIVE-BAND EQUALIZEREqualizers are designed for frequency correction of the playback devices. The scheme of such a device published by the Romanian magazine “Technium”. We are talking about passive bandpass tone corrector, is connected between the two amplifier stages, compensating the loss of gain in the passive circuits. Variable resistors R7 and R5, respectively, lower and adjust the lowest frequency, R10 — medium and potentiometers R13 and R15 — highest and the highest frequency.

HOW TO EXTEND THE LIFE OF THE BULB?

HOW TO EXTEND THE LIFE OF THE BULB?If you are tired to constantly change the bulb, use one of the tips below. But in all cases success is achieved through a substantial reduction in voltage. In the daytime and especially at night, the voltage often reaches 230-240 V, which leads to accelerated burnout of the filaments of light bulbs. It is estimated that the excess voltage of only 4% compared to the nominal (i.e., from 220 to 228) shortens the lifespan of the bulbs by 40% and with increased “power” of 6%, this period is reduced by more than half.

“LIVING” WATER AND “DEAD”

“I know, I know— says a reader, after reading the title.— Yes, but neither “alive” nor “dead” water does not happen. Tales!..” Is he right?

And if you speak the language of chemists, water with a very strong acidic and alkaline reaction. It turned out, ordinary water can be decomposed as two components with opposite properties. According to statements of many who have experienced their actions, “living” water beneficial to the complexion, softens wrinkles, improves hair growth, reduces hair loss, is a good remedy for burns. But “dead” water bad acts on the mouth, reduces gum bleeding.
