Ive been sick these past 2 weeks, I knew i should have held my breath walking past that coughing guy in the exam room, i bet everyone was put out of comission, sleep deprived caffeine hopped up engineering students, spending 3 hours in that small room with at least the one sick person.
Anywho, im good as new, to answer some questions:
Ok, i just got my quick charger this morning and thought, hey, may as well let people on the blog know about it, so here i am.
Opening it i discovered that it is insanely small, i mean, good non-linear usb chargers generally are but, this thing can do about 36W, plus it has dual ports, not that ill ever need to use them.

Ok, so ive been doing a little research inspired by my obtaining that much needed step down converter for the wacoms backlight.
^ [ This is a very stable output ]
First of all, the output seems stable enough it could be used to directly drive the LEDs. its stepping down 24v to about 12v, touching it in places didnt seem to cause random jumps, which means left to itself it should be fine. Also it handled power just fine, didnt even need the heatsink (which came included).

This review is about a newly bought 10W floodlight, i bought it on ebay and was surprised that for $5.50 total i got 3 of them, free postage, all within australia and it arrived in like 4 days via eParcel.

This category will be for various electronics and other products Ive bought to use or am selling, and my experience and reviews on them. Products such as tiny boost converters for example are often advertised as being far better than they really are, so this seems a good place and opportunity to share my experiences with things such as that.
At the same time its also a good place to explain items i sell and am familiar with, in a way different to my ebay store or what would be considered acceptable there. Products i have in mind for this are spark gap igniters and my various special effects pigments.
Ill be posting photos and where appropriate, video of each tested item. Also where relevant, screenshots from my oscilloscope, such as to indicate whether a boost converter or other device is producing stable output, or anything else a scope might be good to read.
