    Charging a 4S Lipo with a wireless charger?

    Hello, I'm trying to design a power system for a desk robot. The idea is that it's kind of like a small roomba that organizes your desk before returning to a charging station. My battery (placed in the robot) is the Ovonic 1550mAh 100C 14.8V Lipo. I have 3 loads to power: 5-7V VIN to ESP32...

    Where do I start to learn electronics as a physics major?

    So I am currently in my second year of college in a physics major. I took my electromagnetism course in my second semester and I got a liking to it. However, the course was completely on a theoretical physics level and in the circuits chapter I didn't perform the best. Sadly I also flunked the...

    Cheapest/easiest way to add linear motion to DIY gantry crane

    I've designed my own height adjustable, small gantry crane for my hobby shop, perfectly sized to collapse just small enough to get under my regular-car garage doors, and yet expandable up to 9.5 ft to utilize the full ceiling height of my shop. The design has been mostly dictated by materials I...

    Confirming Circuit Configuration.

    Hello, I am in a research team and is designing a circuit system for powering a motor with battery and supercapacitor. The battery and supercapacitor powers the motor separately and the motor gives regeneration power back to the supercapacitor (motor driver allows for regen). Can experts in this...
