Because solar panels are so expensive per watt, you might want to use a switching regulator to power your system instead of the linear regulator in most Stamp...
You need to take a look at your voltage requirement first. Is 9 volts just the most convienent battery (plugs directly into the board)? The BasicStamp really...

Hi, I'm looking at buying a multimeter, and I had a few questions. #1. Should I get analog or digital? Why? Which is more acurate? #2. Is there a superior...
Depends upon what you are trying to do. If you have to zero out circuits, a digital is supreme. If you have to adjust gain to close tolerances, a ditigal is...
I like having both (and a scope), but if I was going to have just one handheld meter it would be digital. The previous post listed many of the reasons. I want...

I use capacitance regularly, but not transistor gain since the early 70s<G>. Yes. Always get the best you can afford to get. Pays well in the long run. ... ...
... My suggestion: Have a look on ebay for a Fluke multimeter. I think you could pick up a non-current (but still very useable) model for your price range. I...
Hi Michael: If I could only have one piece of test equipment it would be a Fluke 80 series DMM. Mine is an 87. I actually have a ton of test instruments but...
Not really using it for a Stamp Project yet. Right now its for a wireless security camera that uses a 9 volt battery. Eventually there will be a Basic Stamp...
I'm still using my Radio Shack digital multimeter that I purchased back in collage - that was 23 years ago. I think it's on the second set of batteries!...
That brings up a subject of which I see a bunch. Folks, replace your batteries in the meters about yearly. I don't know how many meters I have seen trashed...

I think that as sample abuse grows, it will start to cost us by loss of availablilty or us paying shipping. Also, there are quite a few Stamp projects with...
