A WAVE OF THE HAND
Not long ago, musical instruments even pop bands — be it saxophone, violin, accordion, piano, double bass and even a drum — gave his listeners a natural, “natural” sound. Today music has become different — is now in Vogue “electronic” sound.
POWERED FLASHLIGHT
During the experiments, building various electronic projects there is often a need for a DC source of relatively high capacity. For example, the battery voltage of 4.5 V is composed of three elements of “373.” To do this, you can put them in the original container tape out cut Velocimetry (see “M-K”, 1986, № 4), bonding like candy wrappers, wrapped in heavy paper (“M-K”, 1988, № 6), or dock in a unit with paper capsules-“shirts” from the same items (“M-K”, 1989, № 11). But still to provide a sufficiently reliable contact in such cases is not always possible. That is why many are still doing the old-fashioned way — connect the elements with each other lengths of wire with rations.
RUN… FROM THE WALL OUTLET
Every driver knows how it is sometimes difficult to start the engine of a car on a winter morning after long Parking. However, a relatively simple device powered from an AC mains voltage of 220 V will greatly facilitate this task. The device consists of two parts (Fig. 1), one AC power supply (voltage 12 to 14 V); the second part is mounted in the engine compartment of the vehicle. They are connected to each other using a special connector.
CAP-UNIVERSAL
Burned out incandescent lamps, unfortunately, not to recover but to use their metal caps is possible. To separate them from glass bulbs, the bulb wrapped in a thick cloth and crushed. Then the caps carefully and thoroughly cleaned from the composition, which to them were glued to glass flasks. The Central contact with the insulator should remain intact.
