^ fucking sucks

reminder to not be a dumbass like me and solder onto a circuit actively being powered

but also the diode seems to be tacked on where it doesn't belong and i'm pretty sure this board is originally meant for mains voltage and is populated weird to with with low voltage DC instead, so can you really blame me

Show thread

well nevermind, the diode really should've been a clue. A is actually voltage input and L is the load output 0-2.5V. it still works

no matter what i tried the A pin on this only ever outputs 800mA and doesn't seem to change no matter what settings, what brightness, and how long i'm nowhere near it and try to activate it, so i'm guessing it's just broken. pity there's no documentation online on how these work

can't for the life of me figure out or find online the pinout for this PIR sensor, pads marked N - A and L, would assume Live and Neutral but N doesn't seem to ever have had a wire. 3 wires red brown blue got ripped from this when yanked so I don't know where they went

the last few years has taught me that 'sex = ick' is almost always used as a wedge issue to stamp out free expression, especially of queer people. please realize this and push back as hard as you can, especially if you are not queer
