Increasing my knowledge of circuitry, improving my theoretical side rather than finding out from adverse experiments etc.Welcome to AAC!
What types of things are you interested in?
If you have any questions about soldering, members can critique your soldering provide tips.Recently i had learned to solder and put together my own audio system, converting 240 VAC to 12v DC with a 1000w capable supply to feed a total of 640 watts of amplification.
Thank you, this is useful information.Welcome to AAC!

The big E who served over 50 years and went through more changes than I can remember.I was an ETRO aboard CVN 65. If you know what that means, then you have a pretty good idea of me.
You bet. '89 to '93The big E who served over 50 years and went through more changes than I can remember.

I rode most of them. Worked DoD and DoE Naval Reactors. CVN 65 was an odd ship having 8 reactors the D2W type. Originally with the round island structure. Funny too in that when the keels were laid for 66 & 67 (Kennedy and America) they were to be nukes but with all the bs in congress and appropriations they ended up conventional. At sea I was what they called a civilian component of DoD. I started with 9 years USMC then went for the greener grass. Coming up on 8 years since I pulled the plug and enjoy retirement. I actually began with NAVAIR and only later went with NAVSEA. Looking back it was a great ride and I enjoyed it.You bet. '89 to '93
Welcome to AAC (again)!This is a picture of the electronics area of my basement shop.
Which Pi did you get?I've recently decided to try my hand at electronics -- following the purchase of a Raspberry pi
Thanks!Welcome to AAC!
I got a Raspberry Pi 4, 4GB RAM.Which Pi did you get?
Sounds interesting, I've been thinking about something light-related, like lights that light the way when you go to the bathroom at nightI built a couple LED projects with Pi Zero W
I recommend backing up your data regularly. I have a Pi Zero W that runs continuously and it has gone through 3 microSD cards in about a year. The cards become write locked and need to be replaced. Fortunately you can get most of the data from the card, but having a current image makes it less bothersome (not having to reconfigure). That's something they did right (I used another Pi workalike called C.H.I.P. that never made it easy for us to make and install our own images). I've been using Kingston and PNY 16GB cards from reputable stores, so I don't think it's a quality/counterfeit issue...I got a Raspberry Pi 4, 4GB RAM.
That will likely pose a wiring challenge. Battery operated LEDs with motion detection would be easier.I've been thinking about something light-related, like lights that light the way when you go to the bathroom at night
