Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Hi Everyone.

I've added this new section for news about the site. If there are any changes, outages, items of general interest, etc, I'll post them here.

Regards
Glenn

This seems as good a place as any to ask a silly question:

What constitutes the different "star" levels and names? Newbie I've figured
out, but what about the rest?

Not 100% sure, but I think...

0 to 39 posts makes you a Newbie
40 to 99 posts makes you a Groupie
100 plus posts makes you a Senior Member

I've added 3 new articles to the site over the last few weeks.

Charge Controller, a simple TL084 based circuit.

Expanded Scale Voltmeter, built into an old charger. http://www.thebackshed.com/windmill/articles/ExpandedScaleVo ltMeter.asp

Portable Charger. Car alternator bolted to a small engine. http://www.thebackshed.com/windmill/articles/PortableCharger .asp

More to come as I write them.
