Silly Job Title: Note Taker. I am the Note Taker!
In this video we continue to work our way through Learning the Art of Electronics. In this video we continue with 1L Lab: DC Circuits and make a voltage divider.
We use the METCAL PS-900 Soldering Station for soldering.
We use the Riden RD6006 Bench Power Supply for 15V power.
We use the Fluke 17B+ Digital Multimeter to measure voltage and resistance.
We use the EEVblog BM2257 Digital Multimeter to measure voltage and current.
We use the Brother P-Touch D210 Label Maker to label our circuit.
We use the ElectroCookie PCB Prototype Solderable Breadboard to make our circuit on.
We use the Multicomp Pro MP701033 Resistor Decade Box for variable resistance.
We use the WilliamKlein Music Stand to hold our textbook.
We use the Scotch Titanium Scissors to cut, cut, cut.
We use the Carpenter Mechanical Pencil to make notes.
We use the Hakko CHP 3C-SA Precision Tweezers for tweezering.
We use the Plato Model 170 Wire Cutter to cut, cut, cut.
We use the Kaisi S-160 45x30cm Repair Mat as our workspace.

Silly Job Title: Bench Master. I am the Bench Master!
In this video we take a look at the HW-028 Rain Drops sensor module: Separate PCB Board Raindrop Module Sensor Rising Water Level Detection Module Raindrop Sensor Board. Project doco is here: HW-028.
We found some instructions and tutorials, including these:
- Arduino – Rain Sensor – Servo Motor
- Arduino Modules – Rain Sensor
- Rain drop Sensor Module
- How to use the Raindrop Sensor Module
Also we noted the use of the LM393 comparator on the module.

Silly Job Title: Surge Sage. I am the Surge Sage!
In this video we continue to work our way through Learning the Art of Electronics. In this video we continue with 1L Lab: DC Circuits and do an experiment: try your DVM’s resistance measurement.
Today we do some experiments to determine the voltage used by our DVM when it is in resistance-measuring mode.
We use the Fluke 17B+ Digital Multimeter to measure resistance and voltage.
We use the EEVblog BM2257 Digital Multimeter to measure resistance and voltage.
We use the Multicomp Pro MP701033 Resistor Decade Box as our variable resistor.
We use the Carpenter Mechanical Pencil to take notes.
