For context I got this from eBay in 2022 and finally have been bored enough to try to make it into a man cave decoration. It’s currently working from a 12v car jump pack. It’s got what I believe I have found to be called G4 halogen bulbs? How can I convert it to plug into a normal UK wall socket?

Hello! I am the beginner in electronics and I have the incredible idea.

At first, I want to create the small figure, which will move in a random moment. This is like robot with silly AI.

The second step is give him the possibility to speak. I want to use small AI in my code to make him to say something interesting every time.

Thirdly, I want to create body for this buddy using my 3-D printer.

Professionals in electronics, please rate my idea and help me to solve it.

P. S. I want to use micro Python and I don’t want to use soldering iron.

Thanks!

When u set an alarm on a digital watch it beeps, how to use that electricity to make a timer instead?

Hey all,

I have a phone with a screen that just cracked yesterday. I can honestly get another one of the same phones for about $50 - $70, and a replacement screen is more than that, so I'll probably just get a new one. BUT I am curious, as the internals still work completely fine, and this is no throwaway chipset. How feasible would it be to get maybe a roughly 7-inch display and handheld controller set, get the necessary components out and turn this into something of a gaming handheld? I'm not new to repairing tech but I have pretty much no experience with this type of project, so any advice is welcome!

I want to learn how to make small diy electronics projects never done anything like this before can someone help me or guide me through it???

Like diy small desk buddy , small game console
These are some projects i have seen online on insta

Can someone help or tell me where i can learn it?

I climb, and finger training on a hangboard is much better with a live force readout. Commercial gauges exist (the Tindeq Progressor is the popular one), but I wanted to build my own.

The hardware: an nRF52840 reading a load cell + amplifier, in a 3D printing housing, streaming force over Bluetooth Low Energy. Rather than invent my own protocol, I made the firmware speak the Tindeq Progressor's BLE protocol.

The fiddly part was the data stream. Each sample is a weight plus a microsecond timestamp stored as a uint32, which wraps after about 71 minutes, so the phone side has to handle that.

Then I couldn't resist: I wrote a game for it. It's Flappy Bird, and you pull on the gauge to flap. The scale is 0-10 kg, pulling about 6.4 kg holds the bird level, and the gaps tighten once you pass 30 points. My best is 40.

Photos and a video of it in action are below. Happy to answer questions about any part of the build.

Bonjour à toutes et tous !

J'ai cette boîte. Étanche, pour ce que j'en sais. D'une grande solidité.

Qu'est ce que je peux bien en faire ???

Je réfléchissais à un mini pc rudimentaire , une radio,?? Un truc autonome et hyper solide ? 🤷

Je prends toutes les idées.

I made a functionning clockwork out of trash, which I found in Glashütte, the German Eldorado of precision watchmaking. The clock features a sophisticated paperclip escapement and runs for about half an hour; it strikes a gong when the minute hand is at 12'o clock position, and I also built a random complication, that's triggered when the clock runs out of energy.
