In this video we make a cable to connect a 6V battery pack with a 9V adapter to a USB Type-A female socket, which we can then use to connect a USB Type-A male through Type-B micro for powering my microcontroller.

In this video we make two cables for use with my oscilloscope or other devices with BNC sockets. The cables have a BNC connector on one end and two male jumper pins on the other end. This is so that I can easily connect my oscilloscope (or signal generator) to a breadboard.

If you’re interested in HDMI specs there is heaps of info on the Wikipedia HDMI page.
The monitor I mention toward the end of the video is the UPERFECT 15.6″ HDMI LCD. It’s physically small, but high resolution. I stop using this monitor because I was having trouble making it work with my new KVM and my studio workstation ‘verve‘.

As I mention in the video I was having a hard time getting good solder joints from my Horusdy Soldering Station. This was annoying me so much that I went and purchased a new soldering iron! My new iron is an Metcal PS-900 Soldering Station and I love it! This is what a soldering iron should be!
We use the Arduino IDE and the sample code from WeAct Studio but we don’t successfully load content into our Epaper Module.

In this video I have a third go at my Maker Faire “Here There Be Makers” badge. You can see my previous attempts here and here

In this video I make a power breakout box. This is for use in testing my new multimeter, but it will be good to have for other uses in future too.

Previously I had installed a single 3mm LED in the top of this thing, but in this video I remove that (so I can use the hole to hang it) and install two 3mm LEDs on the front instead, which is my best guess as to what I was supposed to do with this thing, which didn’t come with instructions.
There is some information about their Maker Faire event on in San Fransisco later this year over here: https://make.co/welcome/
And also, yes, I should have combed my hair before making this video. :P

In this video I fix up one of my Torx T15 drill bits which was damaged by corrosion.
I mention about my broken Logitech C922. I have three of these. They are low resolution (1080p) cameras I use for doing low res video such as with the Welcome Cam, Wide Cam, and Lab Cam. (If you’re interested my good 4K cameras are Logitech BRIO which I use for doing high res video such as with the Bench Cam, Book Cam, and Booth Cam).
The BlueRigger active USB cable I mention is this one: BlueRigger USB 3.0 Extension Cable (32FT, Active, 5 Gbps, in-Wall CL3 Rated, Type A Male to Female Cord). An “active” cable is a powered cable which includes a signal amplifier so the cable can transmit a signal over a long distance, in this case 10 meters (32 feet). I’m not sure if this active cable somehow damaged my Logitech C922? It was working, then it stopped working, but I don’t know why. Maybe dodgy power supply, maybe dodgy cable, maybe dodgy camera, hard to say.
I mention that I’ve been working on the website for the channel. The main website is here: https://www.inthelabwithjayjay.com/ and there is a shortlink redirection service here: https://jjlab.net. You can find all my videos indexed on the site, along with RSS feeds, equipment lists, and other info.
I mention about the upcoming Jaycar / Silicon ChipMini Projects which will be coming up soon. If you’re interested in those don’t forget to subscribe!

In this video I continue to make my first LTspice circuit simulation. I am running this software under Wine on KDE Plasma running on Debian 12 bookworm.
