You can check your battery voltage with and without an atty attached, good way of finding out exactly what voltage is left for the atty when it is in use. You will be surprised what the difference is with various batteries. Some will drop by .6V or more with crap batteries.
You can do it here :-

That would be handy. Request sent. Do ft do 510 connectors, for mod making? I couldn't find any, but thought you might know. I've ordered a couple of lm2596's from them at under £1. If I have to order the connectors and switches in the uk, the board will be the cheapest part in my mods. Cheers.

They have drip tips!!!! It'll be just my luck that- a) they only have a small selection, b) they only do plastic ones, c) they only do plain boring shapes.

Lovely, thank you. They're in the basket. If I can't find a nut a healthy wadge of epoxy putty will secure them. The sort of "Heath Robinson" devices I am creating require a disregard to aesthetics. I was was looking at a motion sensor switch, every time someone walks past me at work I'll get a lung full. Cheers robby your a star.

They're drip tip heaven. I've just put a couple of hybrids in the shopping cart. Only downside being one of them is showing up as 'ships in 5 business days' and we all know how that goes.

I have used them like that seniorphil , you probably know this, but give the plastic or metal surface where the adapter is popping through a really good roughening up. Makes all the difference with adhesion with Araldite

On my order one item says 'ready to ship' in blue but on the right hand side where the prices are it says ETA 1/11/2014 (in 5 days). What's that all about ??? It's either ready to ship or they're waiting for it to come into stock - how can it be both!!! Don't understand
