Silly Job Title: Electron Ambassador. I am the Electron Ambassador!

In this video we figure out how the power subsystem from the Space Drop circuit works. I’m a little confused in the beginning but by the end I understand how it works. The documentation for the circuit we build is here: JJ005.

We use the METCAL PS-900 Soldering Station for soldering.

We use the AiXun H314 Hot Air Gun for heat shrinking.

We use the MUIN Solder Fume Extractor to clear the air.

We use the EEVblog BM2257 Digital Multimeter for continuity testing.

We use the Brother P-Touch D210 Label Maker to label our JJ005 circuit.

We use the Bysameyee Head-Mounted Magnifier for magnification while soldering.

We use the ElectroCookie PCB Prototype Solderable Breadboard to build our circuit on.

We use the Hakko CHP 3C-SA Precision Tweezers for tweezering.

We use the Plato Model 170 Wire Cutter to trim component leads and cut wire.

We use the Kaisi S-160 45x30cm Repair Mat as our workspace.

Silly Job Title: Current Curator. I am the Current Curator!

In this video we follow the instructions to build the Space Drop handheld computer game which you can buy in kit form from here: Space Drop Solder Kit.

The kit comes with the software preinstalled on the D1 Mini microcontroller, but in this video we replace the code with our own version of the code just to see if we could. And we could! Our code is here: Space_Drop.ino.

We use the METCAL PS-900 Soldering Station for soldering.

We use the Pro’sKit SS-331H Desoldering Pump to remove the OLED screen which I accidentally installed without the spacer.

We use the MUIN Solder Fume Extractor to clear the air.

We use the Bysameyee Head-Mounted Magnifier for magnification.

We use the Scotch Titanium Scissors to chop up the packaging for scrap-booking.

We use the Hakko CHP 3C-SA Precision Tweezers for holding solder off cuts.

We use the Plato Model 170 Wire Cutter to snip off component leads.

We use the Kaisi S-160 45x30cm Repair Mat as our workspace.

p.s. today I added OLED to my spell check.
