Re: Batteries
My father wore a hearing air starting in the late 30's. I recall him having a 45 volt and 1.5 volt battery that he would put in his right rear pocket. These powered the vacuum tubes in the aid. When

Re: Batteries
My vague recollection was around 45 V.? But you might have two in series, for 90 V.? I am not sure but I think that was what our AC/DC radio had. Or maybe if you used 22.5 batteries, then two made

Re: A downright amazingly stupid LED headlight, I'm impressed.
Insanity! Ditto. When I became more aware of some of the higher-powered LEDs out there I ordered some. I got 10 10W units, the kind with 3 rows of 3, and so far I've built 3 lamps using these,

Re: Batteries
I've wondered about that, never saw an A or B cell. (...) I remember those, REAL bright light. You could get those batteries with springs on top for contacts, or screw terminals. Didn't know

I don't much care for that site. They'd had a couple of my pages on there, and got takedown notices from me because of it. They want you to sign up to download, but taking a screenshot was good

Talk about an EMI source that exceeds FCC Part 15 radiation limits! Bet it wipes out RF from DC to light. I had a pair of welding goggles for use with mine and still couldn't look directly at the
