[neonixie-l] Re: Legal aspects of kits for sale?

Thank you John for that explanation. It seems that i don't want to make kits anymore, i will document my projects that good, that it will be very easy to rebuild them. Mainly, because i don't want to take the risk to be responsible. Another problem is, that according to my country's electric au

[neonixie-l] Look at a LLC for kits

Limited Liability Company. As I understand it, setting up a limited liability company or corporation shields your personal assets. The LLC can be sued and its assets taken, the table the two folding chairs, soldering iron etc. But the owners personal assets are safe in most cases. I don't practi

I had a similar problem a couple months ago. The solution was to replace the RS-232 level shifter chip. I don't remember the part number, but it was a MAX chip. Good luck. Hopefully it is something simple and not the processor. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Goo

John, that's truly a great write-up, if not very scary. Regarding your liability insurance: Do they demand to see your product, go through its design documentation, or at least see testing evidence before offering the policy? Or if they do cover you with no questions asked, is there risk that t

Another component to check is the wall-brick power supply. I have a clock with a 4-amp 5v supply, it worked fine for over a year then started acting strangely. Under load the wall brick was only putting out 3.5v, no load it was up at 5v. I replaced the wall brick and all is well. http://transist

Re: [neonixie-l] Legal aspects of kits for sale?

Try to use such a unilateral disclaimer in court. It's been too long and I've forgotten the technical term for the legal principle but essentially it says that unless the disclaimer is part of the purchase contract, it has no effect because both parties did not agree to the disclaimer. You establ

[neonixie-l] Re: My NixiChron is sick, what do I do?

Thanks. How do I check a wallbrick without a load? I assume it only puts out the voltage it says under the load it's designed for, and without a load the voltage would be way off. On Friday, May 6, 2016 at 8:02:10 AM UTC-4, Mike Mitchell wrote: > > Another component to check is the wall-brick

Hi, I need a favour :) I have a technical letter about some special/custom valve audio output transformers that I need translated from German into English - Google Translate simply doesn't have the vocabulary... It's about a page and a bit - the letter is typewritten (it was 1996 after all) -

Re: [neonixie-l] Re: My NixiChron is sick, what do I do?

Quincy, You may want to gently just lift the processor partially out of the socket then push it back in. this will reduce the chance of bent pins. You can do this by sliding a slotted (flat blade) screwdriver under the chip (between the processor and the socket) then gently rotate the screw driver

Re: [neonixie-l] Re: My NixiChron is sick, what do I do?

Thanks. And probably a stupid question, but maybe you know, was ever a firmware update (or more recent chip)? The daylight savings time dates changed in the US after my version of the clock so that feature no longer works and you have to adjust it manually. Figured I'd ask since now would be
