Lovely and sunny outside, perfect time to get the Canon R50 out and record some videos!

New mailbag video coming soon, just need to order some more parts. Got an idea for a project! 2x(non-multiplexed) 7 segments, 4 channel level shifter, ESP-01S WiFi module and 5V adapter board and an 32x8 MAX7219 LED matrix!

Been buying stuff on eBay - got a 4 channel bi-directional level shifter, didn't realise how small these boards are! May come in handy for an upcoming project... #electronics

Writing HTML/CSS for the first time in years! I should probably change this line, Google+ hasn't been a thing in quite a while 😆

Testing my eBay camera boom arm/ring light with my Canon R50. The ring light has 3 colour temps and adjustable brightness. Not sure I want to trust this thing to hold my camera if I'm honest... Overhead videos coming soon? I need to fix my wobbly table too somehow...

Been playing with Tinkercad for the first time tonight, actually managed somehow to make something resembling an STS-5 Geiger-Muller tube. Just need to add the ridges and the fuse holder clips now 🤓☢️

Ahh, I'm going to miss these lootbags! Been a great month on WoW with the Collector's Bounty Buff and the Diablo goblin event. Even completed the traveller's log for the first time ever! #WorldOfWarCraft

My ESP-32 breakout board arrived and it fits my 30-pin ESP-32s! This solves the breadboard problem, looking forward to messing around with the ESP-32 soon... #ESP32
July 26, 2025 at 1:10 PM
My first ESP-32 boards! I've used ESP8266 boards before, but want to try out these newer ones which also have Bluetooth. Note the bodge cap on the EN button, apparently it's needed to program it? #Electronics #ESP32

New video! In this episode I attempt to make and program an Arduino on a breadboard using the good old ATMEGA328P microcontroller! Link in the reply

Got my new pair of my old headphones, hopefully these ones will last a little longer than 2 years, Turtle Beach !!! I don't want any of that wireless rubbish, just want some quality, wired headphones.

Tonight's cosy bedtime reading: 'Strange Glow: The Story of Radiation' by Timothy J. Jorgensen. All about radiation, X-rays, Marie Curie, Crookes, Röntgen, the Demon Core, Manhattan Project, Hiroshima, etc!

Finally got round to installing the Arduino IDE, feels a bit laggy, though!
July 9, 2025 at 7:07 PM
Got some new headphones, they're cheap and they don't sound as good as the ones that just broke, think I'm going to just buy a new set of my old ones, they sounded so good!

Good to get the Canon R50 out of hibernation and record some stuff for the channel! #Electronics #Arduino

My Turtle Beach Elite Atlas headphones have broken! Only had these 2 years, what a load of rubbish!

Snagged some games on the Steam Summer Sale! Always wanted to play Kerbal Space Program, AC: Valhalla, too! Carmageddon used to be one of my favourite games all the way back in 1997 😁
