Inside a Chinese street light from eBay

From bigclivedotcom. It’s six years since I’ve looked at one of these, so I thought I’d buy another and see if the construction has changed much. It has changed a bit, but not much. It turns out that even six years ago they were using the new flip chip style LED modules, so the only…

New LED flame bulb – with schematic

From bigclivedotcom. The neon based flicker-flame bulbs have been around for a very long time, and although they were an interesting effect, they tended to be a bit unconvincing. So now it’s time for the LED version with a much better emulation of a flame. The power supply is very typical of the type found…

This connector can kill you

From bigclivedotcom. An interesting, but flawed connector from eBay. This one has the exciting feature of being able to be plugged together incorrectly, with a risk of making the case of the connected item live at mains voltage.

6000W solar flame light – with schematic

From bigclivedotcom. Another slightly overstated eBay solar garden light. This one has options of the central dome being colour changing, flame emulating or red. The circuitry is very similar to a light with equally ambitious power ratings, with the flame effect having its own processor. First mod to make to these units is to add…

ALDI Ferrex cordless hot melt glue gun teardown

From bigclivedotcom. This hot melt glue gun was seized by security when I took it through as hand luggage (for safety!). They implied that I might brandish it and hijack the small island-hopper propeller plane. I’m sure my movie-villain appearance had nothing to do with the decision. Fortunately I was able to pay to have…

Very minimalist light sensor with flicker issue

From bigclivedotcom. Dave sent this for our exploration. It’s a dusk sensor that was built into a wall mounting bulkhead light, but the very minimist circuitry means that at the transition from day to dusk (and dawn) the light will flicker. This module was probably intended for tungsten bulbs, but has survived the transition to…

Mini meteor lights – with schematic

From bigclivedotcom. These are a super-minimalist version of the classic meteor shower Christmas lights. They are very simple and operate from about 3V, meaning you could use these on a costume, or make strings of them. If running from 5V a series resistor is required. I tested one next to another running at 3V and…

Very advanced Indo street light

From bigclivedotcom. First correction – the ACRICH (AC-rich) chips have a 2V analogue input, so a microcontroller can drive that directly without level shifting. The power factor is a stunning 0.99 due to the way the LED current rides the sinewave in sync with the voltage.

Ultra-fast sweet peanut-cream dessert

From bigclivedotcom. One of the fastest and simplest desserts that works by the interaction between peanut butter and double cream. I chose a low calorie sweetener because it dissolves very quickly. It also means that due to the peanut being a complex carbohydrate, this dessert may be compatible with a low carb diet. I accidentally…

Inside a SpliceLine push in cable connector

From bigclivedotcom. A look at an alternative to the classic Wago style push-in wire connectors. The design is reassuringly simple, with what appears to be a copper contact plate with springy steel tangs that grip the wire and hold it firmly onto the copper. The way the spring metal is attached to the copper is…

Can we fix a dead nebula projecting spaceman?

From bigclivedotcom. This unit is completely different from the other unit I looked at. It has different circuitry and a very odd optical system for the nebula effect. Thanks to Christopher for sending the faulty unit for us to explore. The manufacturer might be inspired by the video, as two of the optical components can…
